Dawkins apparently PWND
May 8, 2012 at 11:40 am (This post was last modified: May 8, 2012 at 11:41 am by Napoléon.)
I remember a few weeks ago this debate/programme was posted here on the forums.

This video highlights a particular point a priest made against Dawkins in the program, which made it look as though he had 'pwnd' him.

Apparently not.

The Cardinal should stick to cherry-picking his bible and not 'Origin of Species.'
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

I watched the debate and the moderator saved the Cardinal several times.

Richard Dawkins himself said he prefers non-moderated debates. Imagine how many times the Cardinal would have hung himself in that situation. Now that I would have paid to see.
I respect you too much to believe that you could possibly hold those ridiculous beliefs. - Richard Dawkins, 2012

I have watched that episode of Q&A and Dawkins was the one who pawned not the one who was pawned.

It has to be said quite frankly that Cardinal Pell is a piece of shit.

That he would resort to such disingenuous quote mining is not at all surprising.

Though christians and cretinists quote mining real scientists is hardly new.Angry
