Again disappointing. Dawkins brought up the # of atheist scientists in order to refute the argument from authority that Christians often espouse in their claims of various eminent scientists were christians (ie Newton).
The christian argument is fallacious. afterall correlation does not equal causation, but Dawkins was able to kill even the correlation part of the argument!
So what you are doing is holding scientific rigor to all subjects EXCEPT your own belief in god and your faith. Why is that? By your own admission if you DO apply skeptical rigor to god, you lose your faith.
"I don't know where matter comes from" is a statement of fact not of faith.
Im sure (as the good doctor says) Richard Dawkins would be upset if someone atacked his wifes Charicter in the same way that he atacks gods--the difrence being that his wife is a real persion while god is a delusion
God is like the wind? No. You can measure the wind and it is in evidence every day when you step outside (especially where I live). You have failed to make any kind of convincing argument (let alone analogy), and after episode two of your sermon, I am wondering where I am going to get the last 20mins of my life back.
even if he DID only focus on the nutters, can you at least agree that religious fundamentalists (muslim AND christian) apply way too much political power through their unwavering and unquestionable faith?
i mean seriously, i may not agree with dawkins on everything, but at least he is DOING somthing about these idiots. why not go after the nutters instead of him.
i dont understand why religious moderates chose to go after the harmless atheist instead of the harmFUL religious nutter.
Again, a weak, or non-existent argument for the existence of god. All his points are addressed in the God Delusion, and all still stand despite these comments. Why the videomaker can't see this is beyond me.

Further proof that the faithful don't need reason or facts to believe in their closed view of reality.

Whoever said you get wiser as you get older, didn't meet this jackass. Methuselah here is dumb as ass.
why do jerkoff like him always say, you need MORE blind faith than me, I guess at least they accept they DO have blind faith. Its a start.
