The difference between the lady's dogma and Richard's is that Richard arrived at his convictions through objective research. He is justified in his dogma, she is not.
I have no problem with any creationist debating Richard Dawkins. But please - can they at least put someone up against him that has enough intelligence to walk upright?
When christians think of homosexuality they only think of sex, because christians dont believe in love. They missed RDs point, he wasnt saying that they werent entitled to their opinion, he was peeved that she was basing her views on un-proven facts. Thats what christianity is based on, biggotry and lies, even if cstianity WAS true....why would i want to worship its lies and biggotry? Ownd.
Dawkins is just a little dick. I never ever gonna give up my faith, because why else we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ each year? Thats where Christmass is standing for! So screw tou dawkins!
@bartog1800 You do know that the Xmas shtick, is a pagan festival. Im an atheist, and i have an interest and religions, very fascinating materials, and please, lift your head from the bible, and read the proper books, Jesus H. Christ was born around May, not the 25 of December. (no i dont know what the H. is for.) Try peace for a change. Peace for you all
@bartog1800: Jesus, if he ever existed, was not born on December 25. Regardless, if your only reason for believing is because you celebrate an originally Pagan holiday, then you're the idiot.
@bartog1800 oh please, shut up, christmas used to be a pagan festival, and because of the christianization of northern europe this festival became a celebration of the birth of jesus. and if you're still not convinced, please explain to me the meaning of the christmastree, the decorations, even the gifts, or santa klaus...it had nothing to do with jesus.
If Jesus didnt teach us to love, there would be no laws protecting homosexuals. Many laws in the Uk including the neighbour principal are based on the Bible, and the once that are not, tend not to work for the good of our society.
send her back to better times when blacks were 3rd class and then let her hate on gays see how she then changes her stupid christian mind she is just as bad as those who hated the blacks in the 50,s ! damn fool ! or better yet send her back when slaves were legal !
i really hate it when some people give the old platitudes of oh we must learn how to live together and then say no more on the topic at hand. makes me wanna throw up
@cerebralcereal It's even more disgusting when they then go on to blabber about prohibiting things without good reason or evidence. Especially when it comes to gay rights and abortion etc.
The argument of the homophobes is that men and women can pro-create and gays can't. Of course, nobody will argue that. However, people that are gay are not trying to vanish heterosexuality. It's not about trying to change anybody. It is about accepting people as they are.
“I strongly believe you would not be sitting here if you did not have a mother”
That statement leads me to believe that she thinks if homosexuality was globally excepted that everyone would just choose to be gay. That our human race will die off someday because no one would be heterosexual. Or she believes that everyone that can be born should be born. Or it was a copout because she needed a distraction from the fact that the man next to her was saying something far to true.
Richard Dawkins doesn't say the woman's views aren't valid because they'r different from his. he says they're not valid because she has NO EVIDENCE.
It not a matter of opinion whether 2+2=4, it's a matter of maths. And it's not a matter of opinion whether gays chose to be gay, it's a matter of biology. Dawkins is a professor of biology, and I wish he'd been allowed to speak.
@MaxSmart80 He was also assistant professor of zoology at Berkeley during the sixties, and of course, he's written numerous books on biology. My point was really that Dawkins was a famous biologist long before he was a famous atheist.

@pastafarian4lyfe This is not meant to be funny: Extremist people like that lady often kill their children for not believing and/or acting the same way that they do.
@random0punk yea and if they don't kill them they probably damage them mentally, people like this are most often homosexual themselves and are killing themselves inside, denying their true feelings. (if thats not true we should start that rumor)
And the bible used to be the basis for not allowing black and white people to marry one another, and before that, it was a moral basis for OWNING black people and working them as slaves....I wonder if she'd like to stand by those moral guidelines as well?
If we are going to tolerate eachother that involves gays being legitimate for marriage, it is not a holy union, if it was when a straight atheist or satanist enters the church for marriage god should smite them... Either way the only difference between marriage and anything else is because marriage is the only one with LEGAL benefits. If you want it to be holy, then at least give gays the same LEGAL benefits.
Oh the irony. Around about the 'better time' she was describing, black people were none too popular either. Would she like to see a return to that as well...
It is your right to think homophobic thoughts but you are and always be a non-respect worthy disgusting worthless cunt to me, and that is my right to think that.
@BoyCotEbaynow And the blacks were enslaved... should i dare say it? I don't know if america is ready, probably not but who really gives a fuck? BLACKS WERE ENSLAVED BY WHITE PPL WHO CONDUCTED THEIR SLAVERY WITH THE BIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@gph61 that guy said "can we live in peace" " there needs to be different views out there" and he "identifies" with that dumb lady. and he said " dawkins is arrogant" bcuz he doesnt accept others views, well my question to that dumb idiot is, do you accept views of terrorist who blow themselves?did you accept views of jim jones? do you accept views of hitler or child molesting preachers? thr r so many conflicting views that if u started accepting all, yu'l hav a mess. dawkins is right, again.!
I'm not sure if it's bigotry so much as stupidity. Unless she's against everyone not deciding to have children, what was the point of saying a person has a mother.
And how can you whine for tolerance of your intolerance.
