Quote:I believe it has been established that his "yardstick" (if you will) for measuring the space between humans and those animal thingies is the existence of a soul.
His view seems based on C19th 'quaint customs' view of anthropologists such as Fraser (The Golden Bough)
C19th Victorian England considered itself the acme of civilisation due to its technology. Relative cultural value was judged by technology. (and still is by many of the great unwashed) Culture which did not have the same level of technology,such as say China and India AND were not Christian,were considered inferior.
Under educated persons such as Godthingy are more to be pitied than abused. They have not only failed to develop critical thinking skills,but also apparently did not reach high school or simply did not pay attention.
Such people not only demonstrate Dawkins' claim that science and religion are incompatible, but you can add ANYTHING which conflictst with a narrowly dogmatic world view.
