Hi Q: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgIM3YzmGZY

Richard Dawkins calls a fallacy a fallacy.

Theists display the most extraordinary array of fallacious arguments. One of their favoured tactics is to invent premises. They pass these off as facts. Sometimes these are the product of fevered imaginations, most often they are regurgitated falsehoods, and sometimes they are conscious falsehoods.

  • Gosh, I sincerely hope that you mean that you agree with Dawkins' saying that the questioner was attempting a decree by fiat.

    I also hope that the questioner was nervous! If not, then I can only conclude that his speech reading skills rank with Bullsh's.
