  • *Christians throwing massive strings of curse words at him*

    *say god will forgive them but he's going to hell for an opinion*

  • If your a true Christian forgive him lol -this man is entitled to his opinion people get so mouthy threw email etc when really its some coward oh know he used cap locks :D

  • thats very christian ...hahahaha

    most religious people are always angry & unhappy..wonder why

  • @LlansleyNinja141 are you retarted? really?

  • Pretty bad language for a Christian, right?

    "Your destinty is all f*cked up, f*cking atheist"

  • Hah, he's so epic. "No punctuation at all in that one..."

    In relation to the guy who hopes he gets hit by a church van, I hope someone throws an open copy of Basic Reasoning for Chr- I mean, dummies at him.

  • I love his humor.You can only get this brand of humor from someone whose spent a life time studying and reflecting on serious issues.

  • @israelifaggot No person with a Phd in english literature would fail to spell "literature" among the loads of other spelling errors and lack of punctuation in your post.

    Isn't lying a sin in your religion?

    Obvious troll is obvious.

  • so much for bible thumpers believing in forgiveness

  • Dawkins should just dig a 10 foot hole in front of his house and toss some sticks and leaves to hide it. Anybody who visits his house to carry out their threats will probably be stupid enough to fall into that. I'm sure Dawkins can let them out after convincing them that they're in hell and he is god.

  • god sucks his own ass.

  • @israelifaggot Score: israelifaggot: 1 - authorless: 0

    Well played, sir. Your wit and wisdom is second to none. I concede defeat to an intellect greater than mine.

  • @israelifaggot Oxferd? You don't say! Very cool!

  • @israelifaggot A PhD in English Literature with spelling and grammar that atrocious?

  • I know I am an atheist and all, so it may seem contradictory for me to admit to having this emotion, but this is a prime example of why i love Richard Dawkins. I mean, if atheists can know what love is without God.

  • @israelifaggot Too bad you dont have a PHD in a credited science! If you did, you would not be making these statements in the first place.

  • @israelifaggot Air and smells may be invisible, but they are DETECTABLE. Is your god detectable? Did you invent a god detector? If so, please share it with the rest of the world.

  • most of the people don't understand evolution, they think it's an act of magic or some sort of plan, but the true beauty of it, is that it's an act of randomness at it's best

  • This made me laugh so hard!

  • @apoplexy1974 True. In metaphorical form, figure of speech, you make perfect sense.

    But we are dealing with creationtards on the internet. They take everything literally. :-)

  • @apoplexy1974 "'illimination of the weakest'"

    That's also wrong. The problem is that it implies properties like strength, speed, brute force etc will always get the upper hand. This is incorrect. For starters, such properties are subjective.

    In reality, it's those better equipped for survival in their specific habitat/environment that will survive. Wich doesn't necessarily include force, speed, etc. It can include ANYTHING helpfull in the given environment.

  • brilliant

  • You would think If one was going to try to send an clearly educated man hate male, they would think about what they wrote.

  • lmao! how the fuck can a christian talk about things that aren't proven? I believe they call this irony.

  • aww what mean emails. :-( Shut up you cowards!

  • @JeanySullivan What are you talking about?

  • @FatalKnight I mean the authors of the hate mails to Mr. Dawkins. :-(

  • How could my fellow Christians say so many hateful things?

  • @FatalKnight It's fear my friend. These people feel that their whole world will be destroyed at the hand of Dawkins, when life will pretty much move on as always regardless of how many people think he's correct. Fear really doesn't get you anywhere.

  • @giant2rabbit3 spelling mistakes as well unless i just misheard it ... either way, thats creationists for you...

  • God protect us from the christians!

  • how can you upload this video and leave out the classic "church van" mail he reads out next??!!

  • That's an example of the pain that dogmatists go through.

  • Nice to see the true side of Christianity. Such a graceful religion. They probably don't mean to be hypocritical. Christians can get angry sometimes and when they do, they don't use any punctuation.

  • How do I email him, I want to simply send him and email stating as follows "Thank you for existing, in all your awesomeness"

  • ahahahahahah Dawkins is the man!

  • "No puncuation at all in that one." Dawkins is funny : )

  • Get your history straight Hitler was an Evolutionist.

  • @JamesRideout123 Hitler was also a vegetarian, does that make all vegetarians mass murderers? I see what you're doing here. You're attempting to convey in the weakest way possible that because Hitler may have espoused utterly erroneous views on evolution, that all people who believe in evolution must by the same definition be evil, to a greater or lesser extent. At the very least, you seek to undermine evolution by linking it with Hitler, and to increase your own belief in "creationism".

  • @JamesRideout123 Hitler, Mein Kampf: "Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator." "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth!" "by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord." Hitler was a christian.

  • @exodus3115 Darwins evolution theory says that we started off as small rats which evolved into apes, and we're getting bigger and better and smarter all the time, and one day we will become Gods and rule the universe which is what Hitler believed too. He figured he was God because he thought he was more evolved than the rest of the world. That's what all other religions teach too, except Christianity. Hinduism and Mormonism. Satan in Eden invented the belief that we can be gods.

  • @JamesRideout123 (Cracks Knuckles)

    Define "Started off", because it seems to me as if rats were definatly not the starting point. Nice job quoting Kent Hovind, next time give quotaion marks where they are due. He's right in some regards, better is a relative term, seeing as mankind is rather inimprssive when compared to many other animals around (tigers, gorillas, lions, all would kill us easily). He's right when saying we are getting bigger and smarter. Thats not disputed by anyone.

  • @JamesRideout123 Your big problems come a little after that: First, you invoked Godwin's law, which always shows someone knows nothing about what they are saying, but i'll continue on: Your point about hitler is a premise, yet you are unable to provide a conclusion, give me that and then we can continue on that point. (And Hitler believed in your god, just FYI). Nothing you say about being "Gods" has anything to do with the actual theory. Epic Fail.

  • @exodus3115 Fuhrer's private opinions, assembled by a close aide during the war years, shows Hitler to be rabidly anti-religious. He called Christianity one of the great "scourges" of history, and said of the Germans, "Let's be the only people who are immunized against this disease." He promised that "through the peasantry we shall be able to destroy Christianity." In fact, he blamed the Jews for inventing Christianity. He also condemned Christianity for its opposition to evolution.

  • @JamesRideout123 Interesting how you trust the words of a few of the guys aides over the words of the guy himself. Your not going to get that one across in a public forum.

  • @exodus3115 He was masquerading himself as a Christian for political reasons. He knew the public would support him if he showed Christian values but in the end he did not show Christian values. I can paint a Swastika on my Arm it doesn't make me a Nazi.

  • @exodus3115 He was masquerading himself as a Christian for political reasons. He knew the public would support him if he showed Christian values but in the end he did not show Christian values. I can paint a Swastika on my Arm it doesn't make me a Nazi. Jews killed Jesus but they also invented Christianity. He was no Christian.

  • @JamesRideout123 Once again, your trusting the words of a few of the guys aides over the words of the guy himself. Thats hardly evidence, and it simply will not work. People can lie.

  • I love the way the "turn the other cheek" Christians, literally "don't". What's the matter Christianity, your hegemony of the last 20 centuries is being challenged and you don't like it? ;) Come on Rich, keep it going.

  • One thing I don't get. Why are the christians using the devil like he is god's tool. Why would the devil have fun torturing dawkins when dawkins would supposedly be one of his greatest allies? So if god's judgment is bad, then they should go to the devil? Sounds like these christians aren't very consistent, that or they have very bad grammer and can't communicate the fact that they are supposed to not be on the devil's side. Or maybe god and the devil are on the same non-existent side ;).

  • you cant blame believers because they were the ones who were brainwashed by there parents into believing in fairytales. But this in turn makes those children grow up and teach their children that as well. There is no stopping this horrendous disease

  • @TIgerMagic12 actually an education and taking away ignorance is the cure.

  • no punctuation at all in that one.

  • ahh the good ol' christian way!

  • I really want to buy that man a beer, just for being that amazing. Dawkins is the fucking man.

  • @Gunter03301 Richard Dawkins is definitely a cunt. Those people laughing can laugh all the way to hell. I could show an Atheist all kinds of information and evidence for the existence of God but it is pointless since they will not actually read it they will simply look the other way. Ironically Atheists accuse Creationists of this very fact. Many Christians have gone to school and learned about Evolution but how many of the Atheists have gone to Church to learn about God?

    None or very few.

  • @JamesRideout123 we all learn about god and evolution in schools. 

  • @JamesRideout123

    You can't show any evidence of the existance of god. All you can show is a book that was written thousands of years ago, by people who believed in Sexism, Racism, and other intolerate things. Probably most Athiests today were Christian during there early life, but then they finally were able to get away from the Brainwashing the church does to children. And they were able to look at the facts of life.

  • @DesertRider94 You can't show any evidence for the Theory of Evolution.

  • @JamesRideout123

    First of all yes you can. In order for something to be called a Theory, it must be tested and reviewed many times. Second, just because your Atheist it doesn't mean you have to be an Evolutionist (some people claim to be Atheist, but are actually Agnostic). Third, you said you had plenty of Evidence pointing towards an Existance of a Higher being, but when asked you what they were your rebuttle was that I cannot prove evolution. So Because i cant prove evolution, God exists?

  • @DesertRider94 Agnostic and atheist are not mutally exlusive. One is actually a qualifier of the other.

    Gnosticism deals with knowledge: can you KNOW something.

    We can't know anything about the supernatural, since it's not testable.

    By defenition, everything that has to do with the supernatural, we are agnostic about.

    So you are either an agnostic theist or an agnostic atheist.

  • @JamesRideout123 The fact that it is called theory implies that it was once hypothesis.

    The fact that it's called theory today, means that they hypothesis was sufficiently proven accurate for it to be called theory.

    Scientific theory has evidence by defenition.

  • @JamesRideout123

    Also there is plenty of Evidence towards the Theory of Evolution.

    1. Comparitive Embriology. If you look at the Embryos of any animal, it's almost impossible to tell apart each Species.

    2. Fossil Record. There aroud thousands of Fossils, that point to Evolution.

    3. Vestigial Structures. All different species, have unused, and unimportant structures in there body. Such as a Human's Appendix, or a whale's hip.

    4. Compartive Anatomy. Speaks for it's self

    This was just a few.

  • @DesertRider94 I've seen a car get into an accident and lose its wheels that doesn't mean its becoming a truck. All you know about fossils is that something died and was buried which is more evidence for a flood. Vestigial structures are useful they are not unimportant if you remove them you can still live but will have a shortened lifespan. As far as comparitive anatomy goes that to me sounds like more evidence for common designer. 2 tablespoons of Dna can reach moon the moon and back 5x.

  • @JamesRideout123

    How are fossils more evidence for a flood. Animal remains get buried because as the years go on wind causes more dirt and sand to cover it up. Comparitive Anatomy leads to a common ancestor not to intelligent design. What does evolution have to do with how thin DNA strands are.

  • @JamesRideout123

    Vestial structures are not important. They are structures that were useful years ago, by ancestors, and they are not useful now because of Evolution. The ancestor of whales today, was somewhat like a wolf. Until one day when one of the organism in the species, that was born with a variation, that allowed him to swim in the water more effectively. Because that variation allowed him to get more food, he was able to survive and reproduce.

  • @JamesRideout123

    And millions of years of small variations they became whales. But whales still have hip bones, even though they dont walk on land, because their ancestor used to be a land animal. Humans have an appendix, because early forms of Homonids. Such as Homo-Habillus, and Homo-Erectus had a very harsh diet, and they needed the appendix to excrete different enzymes to help digest the food. Now i may ask you this, if God created us why do we still have our appendixes.

  • @DesertRider94 Evolution is to believe in Darwinism. Darwinism states that everything came about through something called Natural Selection. Natural Selection states that the weak die off and only the strong survive and this is how people Evolve. I think that is a terrible thing to say. It is precisely this type of thought that spawned the Nazi party because it suggests that there are Inferior and Superior races.

  • @JamesRideout123 "Natural Selection states that the weak die off and only the strong survive and this is how people Evolve. I think that is a terrible thing to say."

    1. weak/strong are an oversimplification to be honest.

    2. your emotional problems with something has no bearing on the correctness of . said something. Nature is very much indifferent. Ie: Storms cause innocents to die. That's sad, but it won't make storms any less real.

  • @JamesRideout123 "Nazi party because it suggests that there are Inferior and Superior races."

    Evolution doesn't say anything about superior or inferior races. I have no idea why you think that it does.

  • @DesertRider94 Evolution is to believe in Darwinism. Darwinism states that everything came about through a process called Natural Selection. Natural Selection states that the weak die off and only the strong survive and this is how people Evolve. I think that is a terrible thing to say. It is precisely this type of thought that spawned the Nazi party because it suggests that their are Inferior and Superior races.

  • @JamesRideout123

    Well natural selection, refers to what happens in nature. What you are talking about is called social Darwinism, and I don't believe it.

  • @DesertRider94 You're too young to understand the implications of Evolution. If Evolution is true then who decides what is right or wrong?

  • @JamesRideout123

    Ahh the most common Theist argument. When we are little we have no morals, we just don't know. All we know is us. As we grow we soon realize that to get what we want, we need to be good people. Social Contract is what defines our Moral Compass. We act the way we do, because we want people to work together, and make friendships. After we learn what is right and wrong, then it really depends on us. If God made our Morals, then why are some people doing bad things.Isnt he perfect

  • @DesertRider94 Well if I brought a smashed Truck into a Ford dealer and said you did this he'd laugh at me. He'd say nono you did that. Our world is the same. We complain about God giving us a broken world and God laughs at us. It is not God who broke the world it is us. God gave us free will so that it would be our choice to serve him or not. This is how he determines the wheat from the tares.

    Like sheep we have all gone astray. We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.

  • @JamesRideout123 I don't think you understand your own theology. God created a system which he knew would be flawed, according to the bible. He LET it all go to hell, several times in several places, before, for some unknowable reason, he stopped intervening (hmm... maybe it had something to do with people keeping accurate written records...). Your "argument from bad analogy" doesn't help your point at all.

  • @MNSDaz He let it all go to hell and then Jesus died. Jesus died to pay the price for it all going to hell. It all went to hell because of man not God.

  • @JamesRideout123 You know that Jesus was just a religious figure Christianity copied from older religions, right? Why would god even LET such evil ensue, why would he even create something knowing it would ruin itself if he loves everyone? Think about it: if you love someone, and you know they're going to hurt themselves (maybe unwittingly), wouldn't you do EVERYTHING in your power to stop them or intervene? Instead of just saying "if you do that, something bad will happen".

  • @MNSDaz You've been watching too much Zeitgeist. No Christianity was not just a copy. God didn't let evil ensue. Man created Evil and was given free will in order to do it. This is why Jesus died. If God does not give man free will how is he supposed to determine the wheat from the tares?

  • @JamesRideout123 Evolution explains the biological diversity of life on this planet. It makes no statements or predictions about humanistic morality.

  • @JamesRideout123 Not true at all. Natural selection is "the process by which genetically heritable traits become more or less common in a population over successive generations. It is a key mechanism of evolution." It also entails "The natural genetic variation within a population of organisms means that some individuals will survive and reproduce more successfully than others in their current environment" It has nothing to do with ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE and therefore is NOTHING like Nazism.

  • @Jude2Mahoney Fuhrer's private opinions, assembled by a close aide during the war years, shows Hitler to be rabidly anti-religious. He called Christianity one of the great "scourges" of history, and said of the Germans, "Let's be the only people who are immunized against this disease." He promised that "through the peasantry we shall be able to destroy Christianity." In fact, he blamed the Jews for inventing Christianity. He also condemned Christianity for its opposition to evolution.

  • @JamesRideout123 So?!? What does that prove? That ALL atheists are like Hitler? I suppose you're aware of the well documented aid that the Catholic church gave to Hitler in his rise to power? Or how it looked the other way during the Holocaust? Your (incorrect) assertion about natural selection and then comparing it to Nazism is so wrong as to be laughable. I don't really see what point you've made here. For every historical nutter who was an atheist, I can show you dozens who were "Christian".

  • @Jude2Mahoney The whole Hitlerian idea of the “master race” of “supermen” was based on the Darwinian principle of “survival of the fittest” which Hitler proposed to speed up by various policies. Jews and Blacks were singled out as retards on the evolutionary scale who must not be allowed to contaminate the more evolved, i.e., the more advanced “aryan master race”.

  • @JamesRideout123 Then Hitler was wrong in his take on survival of the fittest! However, "Darwin first used Spencer's new phrase "survival of the fittest" as a synonym for "natural selection" in the fifth edition of On the Origin of Species, published in 1869.[2][3] Darwin meant it as a metaphor for "better adapted for immediate, local environment", not the common inference of "in the best physical shape" [4]. Hence, it is not a scientific description,[5] and is both incomplete and misleading."

  • @JamesRideout123 Also, "The phrase "survival of the fittest" is not generally used by modern biologists as the term does not accurately convey the meaning of natural selection, the term biologists use and prefer." Again, HE was wrong and so are YOU in your attempt to link evolution to Hitler! You're bandying around out of date phrases that have no scientific meaning and then linking them a mass genocidal lunatic to justify your own personal beliefs. It's 100% incorrect. I'm sorry, but it is.

  • @JamesRideout123 Using the Nazi programme of eugenics is NOT evolution, no matter what THEY thought, or what you think it is. It's simply an excuse for a murderer like Hitler to lay some sporadic claim to "doing the right thing" as he saw it. No amount of using the words "Hitler" and "evolution" in the same thread will sully it, simply because there is NO link!!!

  • @JamesRideout123 Furthermore, an interpretation of the phrase "survival of the fittest" to mean "only the fittest organisms will prevail" (a view sometimes derided as "Social Darwinism") is not consistent with the actual theory of evolution, as Any individual organism which succeeds in reproducing itself is "fit" and will contribute to survival of its species, not just the "physically fittest" ones, though some of the population will be better adapted to the circumstances than others.

  • @JamesRideout123 "survival of the fittest" is not a principle within evolution theory.

    It was a term tossed around in some article in the media by a journalist a long time ago.

    It has no scientific implication or merrit whatsoever.

    Get your facts straight.

  • @JamesRideout123 Cars don't mutate, reproduce and die.

    Cars aren't subject to the processes of bio-chemistry. Cars thus aren't subject to the processes of bio-evolution.

  • @JamesRideout123 "Many Christians have gone to school and learned about Evolution but how many of the Atheists have gone to Church to learn about God?"

    Several studies have shown that in general, Atheists have much more knowledge about the bible then christians do.

  • LOL. Dawkins at his best. Not worried about reading any form of criticism, or rather ABUSE, of his way of thinking. BRILLIANT PEOPLE HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR FROM THE POOR-MINDED FOLK ON THIS EARTH. lol

  • This brings me such joooooooy!

  • You cut off the last one about the chruch van, it's the best one.

  • I don't know how he can stand listening to the same douchbag arguments over and over again.  He's class. He makes me hot when he swears.

  • even though its bleeped out. when professor dawkins swears its wierd, lol

  • Come on Richard, u know that this is a below the belt punch. You only read comments from upset--- non-christian people to try to show that christians are just like the ones from your comment list. True christians aren't offended by your comments anyhow... we don't get upset from people who don't believe... We only try to talk some since into you guys before you die.

  • @pastorATLove "We only try to talk some sense into you guys before you die"

    Says the person who cant show any evidence of an afterlife or a god or a SPECIFIC god.

    "talk some sense"????

  • Dawkins rules!!!

  • definitely keep uploading. well, why would you listen to anyone named fergy anyways?

  • please keep uploading, this was enjoyed

    dumb ass christians
