  • Every time I hear this, a few tears leave the corner of my eyes. I feel a boost of vitality, I new insight, a new view, this is inspiring. From the day I first read a book by Richard, my life changed greatly. Nothing means more than science for me now, I find everything I need in science, I love it and I'm grateful. For this I have decided to study the sciences, cosmology or evolutionary biology, or both. Thank you, You will forever have changed me to the better. What a man.

  • Beautiful. Period.

  • @SpencerBenedict2nd What a dumb commet. Why do you hate smart people? Is it because you are jealous and don't understand anything ?

  • The cup is half full

  • @MotaroMKD True, however we as humans have placed a very great value on the differences in the 1% that can vary. It's that difference that makes me, me and you, you. Humanity has always found finding differences much easier than finding common-ground (why war is so much easier than peace).

  • I enjoyed 'Unweaving the rainbow'. 'The Ancestor's tale' is excellent too. For great analysis of the facts about the Bible & other old Writ & comparative religion try also John W. Loftus, Robert M. Price, Dan Barker, Valerie Tarico, Ken Humphreys, Keith Parsons, Ken Pulliam, David Mills, Gary Greenberg, Bart Ehrman, Joseph Wheless, C. Dennis Mckinsey, Richard Carrier, Christopher Hitchens, Bertrand Russell, Israel Finkelstein, James Frazer, Jason Long, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett

  • Beautiful, inspiring words from a true genius - above all, a true human. May you keep going strong for a long, long time Prof Dawkins.

  • Word.
