Neil deGrasse Tyson (the Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History) responds to comments by Richard Dawkins with some criticism of his tone and attitude. Dawkins defends himself with a joke. To explore this issue further---i.e., antagonistic fundamentalist, atheism versus unequivocal but more empathic presentation of scientific truth---with lots of additional videos, see http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/28 For more "Saint" Richard ;-) check this out: http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/99

I feel degrauss fails to comprehend that the only way to educate most of the people here in the US about science is to grab them by the throat and shake the living shit out of them. Religion was beat into them with a 2x4. It's going to take a ball bat to get it out.
Like him, or hate him. He is very well spoken, and even more intelligent. It does not take a gargantuan dose of science to realize this quite honestly, but if you want one... read his books.
Most important, dialogue-shifting, influential evolutionary biologists to exist since Darwin himself.
In all honesty, and I really did not come here looking for an argument, so don't expect to get one. Of most forums on the internet where just anyone can chime in and say whatever they are thinking, this is amongst the lousiest... consistently
The debates are just trite and/or dumb.
Dawkins is a "godsend" to his field. He is an especially astute scientist, and i would sincerely doubt that anyone who says he isn't a good scientist even caries a degree in science.
You see, your comment is another shining exmaple of how Richard preys on ignorant fools to propogate his beliefs.
I am not a christian, just a human being with a well edcuated enough mind to see can see that a Richard Dawkins is a classic old fashioned fundamentalist prick
The only contribution Dawkins has made to society and the world is inflame the potentiality of another world war
What a great guy! ow dont forget the wonderful donations to HIS type of science

Atheist answer: Because the water's been heated to 100 degrees centigrade resulting in a change in state from liquid to gas.
Christian answer: Because I want to have some tea.

Richard is, in fact, a very polite and reasonable man who has made substantial contributions to society.
AMEN!
