God, a Logical Fail (Richard Dawkins)

An excerpt from Chapter 2 of The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.

Professor Dawkins discusses the creator of the Universe - the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM), blessed be his noodly appendages.

Professor Richard Dawkins acknowledges that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is "UNDISPROVABLE" at 3:19.
Ramen.

For some reason he also mentions Gods that aren't real.

If you don't believe in the flying tea pot then you are doomed to an afterlife of horridly brewed coffee

@toiwin Technically, darkness=absence of light. Everything else you said is just Metaphoric Poetic Bollocks. Congrats. Pray for me, and I will think for you, since you seem to lack that function

@dragaoastro69 "history my friend cannot be changed" I didn't say so. Look, Stalin was a ruthless vile dictator and his lack of religion has nothing to do with it. Most wars in history are caused due to ethnic tension between various sects or religions. It's nice that you mentioned Mongols, because Crusaders had the same barbaric instinct as them. And the MOST important, ARABS saved most of the ancient culture, not Christians. Arabs were not driven by Islam, because it was too early (~1000 CE)

@Neueregel forget something called reason and logic based on empiric evidence. Something that you often shout to religious people. You FAIL at all levels. Your welcome if i made you laugh!

[dragaoastro69]

@Neueregel by your agressive militant atheism. Stalin was a marxist and a leninist. It seems to me that Marx said that religion is the opium of the people and that Lenin said "Our program necessarily includes the propaganda of atheism"...Soviet russia WAS a atheist state and imposed that view and you can say what you want and lie because it will nor change what is written and done. Religion does nor have the monopoly of violence. the problem is that you are so looked in you close mind that you

@Neueregel christians???), the pillage of Constantinople by the turks or the invasion of iraque by us forces this century. To deduce that however that was comon practice by christians is just ignorant. No serious historian will agree whit you and the amount of evidence against your deluded idea is stagering. Christian scholars and monks were preserving western culture wile pagans and atheist were dancing the cumbaya on the woods! "Then again, the usual tale" history my friend cannot be changed

[dragaoastro69]

@Neueregel "Dark Age mentality!" You fail to understand medieval mentality, so i hope you will read some books on the period. Yet again you ignored my arguments which means you fail to prove that during 1000 years the medieval religious society has done nothing to human progress. The amount of importance to western society is priceless. The burning of the library of alexandria is equal to many other sad burnings and destruction of knowledge like the mongol destruction of bagdad (were they

@dragaoastro69 Then again, the usual tale.. atheism=stalinism or whatever. NO, IT'S NOT !! Atheism is a PHILOSOPHICAL stance and viewpoint. Stalinism was a POLITICAL viewpoint. Don't confuse between those 2. Religions divide and cause wars that why in an intelligent species' future they are probably becoming extinct. Religion is sinking down the drain, because it is unable to keep up with contemporary progress. The sooner  you realise it, the better for you.

@dragaoastro69 1. Just because the universities were established in the 1200's, doesn't mean we should have a Dark Age mentality!! "{reservation of ancient sources by Christians???" ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Christians burned over 90 % of ancient texts (E.g. Burning of Alexandria Library in 4-rth cent. C.E. They brought distaster, looted and slaughtered thousands in the Crusades. They hanged witches ruthlessly. At least you made me have a good afternoon laugh. Thanks.
