How embarrassing for Mehdi Hasan, Dawkins' interviewer in the video, to admit he believes the tale about Muhammed's travels on a flying horse. That is the equivalent of a 35 year old still believing in Santa Claus.

I propose a change of laws. Replace 'freedom of religion' with 'freedom from religion'

Good point!

Islam teaches that the world was created in 6 days. You can find it in multiple places in the quaran.

What a liar.

i hate how science is blamed for killing people. science is a method of understanding, it only makes doscoveries thats it. technology is what has the potential to cause harm. but the two are not synonamous

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have ever lasting life. John 3:16 Amen

The full quote from Karl Marx is: "Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people". The interviewer engages in the technique of quote mining. I wish that Dawkins had confronted him on that one. There is little to gain by arguing reasonably with someone who treats reason with disdain. I'm glad I have my lucky astrology mood watch to give me comfort.

Muslim piece of shit would have Dawkins beheaded if he had his way. Send all muslim subhumans back to their own countries.

Excellent interview. Both guys did well, but as always, Richard Dawkins killed it
