Dawkins decided I was PNG 24 hrs after I met most of the Ratz ..... I'm not at all sure why The atheist movement has adopted him ?

Isn't Richard Dawkins already a member here, I'm sure Pappa said something about this?

Well there is two schools of thought on this:

Anyone who considers Dawkins to be the leader of atheism (Dawkins doesn't) is an idiot and is prone to religious thinking.

Anyone who just considers Dawkins to be a good spokesman for atheism, well a lot of atheists agree (including me) some don't which is their right.

Lol, if anything this is more applicable to Ratz as we have reached the age where we don't need the approval of our peers and just say what we damn well like. :smoke:

He's not listed as the member. That means you can write anything you like about him here without breaking the forum's "be nice" rule.

I don't bear Dawkins any grudges, but I think he cuts a pathetic figure.

What's there to elaborate? Dawkins is not a member of this forum. End of story. As to what I think about Dawkins, I commented in about 250 posts stretching back seven years. The majority were quite critical. Right now don't feel like raking over cold coals again.

For some reason, this brings to mind the image of a perplexed Dalek, shouting in its mechanical voice;

"ELABORATE, ELABORATE, ELABORATE..."
