ABOUT RICHARD DAWKINS:
Richard Dawkins is a world-renowned evolutionary biologist, author and outspoken atheist.

The Galaxy British Book Awards named him Author of the Year in 2006 for The God Delusion, and in 2008 his TV program 'The Genius of Charles Darwin' won Best Documentary Series at the British Broadcast Awards. He was listed as one of TIME Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in 2007.

The New York Times Book Review has hailed him as a writer who "understands the issues so clearly that he forces his reader to understand them too." Among his books are The Ancestor's Tale, The Selfish Gene, The Blind Watchmaker, Climbing Mount Improbable, Unweaving the Rainbow, A Devil's Chaplain and The God Delusion.

Well if the proof of god is not being able to prove he doesn't exist, would that logic apply to everything mythological? You can't disprove any other gods, why is one religion more privileged than the other. If I use that logic in any other argument it's laughable. The tea pot orbiting Saturn, unicorns, fairies, and Santa Clause all exist also since you can't disprove them. If you want to think about it rationally, factually, and truthfully, you have to come to the conclusion there is no god. Now if you want to come out and say you believe in god with nothing solid to back it up, except fear of hell. I'm fine with you living in your delusion, just don't force it on my children whilst in science class.

Can someone please tell me how a mindless process can create forms and shapes that we identify with? I am a Christian and I am not being sarcastic, I really don't understand how. Ok, let's say evolution is true, no dount about, just like Global Warming, sorry, I'm being sarcastic again, my bad. :) But seriously, How doeas this mindless force say, ok this is an eye, and this is what it's supposed to do, how can there be natural laws? How can there be the mathematical precision that our universe and it's laws exist in? In survival of the fittest, what is fit? I don't know, tossing my Bible that actually has made me a wiser person and just accepting the faith of mindless evolution is a hard pill for me to swallow. I mean everything from the cell upward has a purpose, how can there be purpose in evolution?

once everything was explained in spiritual terms, now everything is defined by scientific terms. perhaps in the future a balance can be found between the two.

I agree with Bill O. Till you prove to me that god doesn't exsist I don't believe you.

Sorry bud.

Ok the universe over time just appeared? Right!!! Life in its simplest form is to complex to have evolved! All the pieces had to be in place at one time making evolution impossible. On judgment day will you really be able to say to God there was no evidence of your existence! How many of you have forfeited the opportunity to know the living God!!! How sad!!!

Since when does belief have anything to do with fact? It's either true or it's not true, regardless of what you believe. Evolution is a fact. It's not a belief. If I choose to believe a tea pot is orbiting Saturn, does it make it true due to the fact you can't prove otherwise. This kind of anti logic/anti thinking is to weak to win an argument, and should not even be allowed in debate, for if I used that same logic to prove or disprove anything but god, I would be laughed out of said argument.

Where will science, medicine and technology leave us in the future on an evolutionary scale? When do we let nature take its course - let the one die to save 5 down the road. What good is our big brains if they no longer fit through the birth canal? How can a species survive the long road of evolution if the babies are reliant on cesarean birth? How can a species survive in which have lost their immunity to virus due to medication and penicillin? All the people we save today - does this condemn our future generations from genetic strength on a natural scale?

For the second time in as many days my comments about the true nature of consciousness has been removed for no apparent reason in this "clear thinking oasis". Why the censorship? Who have I offended? The answer is no one. The truth is very dangerous to you as it exposes your false propaganda. So best just remove the comment so we can continue to cheat others.Your lives and careers depend on it

The only primal fear is the fear of death. From this fear came the need for something greater. God. With the creation of God came politics and religion, and our fear of death became exploited. The politician and religious leader need war and evil doers because without these things their game is up. You want everlasting life? No problem. There's a snake oil salesman on every corner.
