rough outline of what science is, leading to an investigation of richard dawkins scientific credentials of belief, motivation, and other psychological phenomenon. he may be a hot geneticist, but that doesnt mean he has any scientific foundation in philosophy or psychology. talking scientifically about what people believe as delusion should be left to the scientific preforessionals, not the personnally motivated.

  • lol, you have done no research at all!!! Richard Dawkins has TONS of peer reviews. You really need to make another video apologizing for making such a stupid claim. I mean it. Say your sorry.

  • show me some peer reviewed stuff he did in any area of psychology(belief, motivation, reason, perception, consciousness,etc). just because he has studied genetics doesnt mean he is an expert in psychology. isnt everything in the god delusion pretty much about psychology?

  • Richard Dawkins is held in very high regard by people that teach doctors, scientist's, etc in schools you probably could not afford to go to.

  • i only believe what i can experience, no authority can give me 'truth'. you seem to operate with many assumptions and take many other peoples word for many things (i could be wrong). its a good thing we are all entitled to our own opinions. i hope yours work out for you.

  • well i dont know what to say. you have judged me and you know vast amounts about religion and its effects. i hope your interpretations lead to a fullfilling life.

  • mr richard is 3 times older and many more times educated then u r. he probably have read more books then u imagined. and he sure does know and have experience that of 20-30 times more then yours.( i.e maturity and understanding is not added by age. it is multiplied.personal theory. tell me if u agree.)so atleast dont insult his work. and ya by the way i have seen u r second video( which was no better then this exept for this dialogue) "think foe u r self". i THINK u need to"think for u r self".

  • well religion( presicely priests) have caused a lot alot alot of blood shed till date and even today planning to continue. although civilization is actually because of religion. it helped us organise as a society. fear of god kept our ancistors from killing and dominating the others.(well atleast to small scale. kings did what they did{they were said to b appointed by god})i dont see religion have helped human kind in any other way. hope to get some replies soon.

  • coppernicus, Einstein, Leonardo DA Vinchi, newton and many many more were atheist(or non believers). ya u r right they are stubid. ohhh boy.. lol

  • if u dont believe in bible, or quaran or any other religious books from where does u get the idea of god or come to know about his powers or the miracles he did or he is capable of doing.priests tells us" coz the book says its truth" for me the inconsistincy in bible's story and real facts is enough to not believe in any of that mythology nor their god(s).

  • Terrible structure of an argument, no points made. Waste of my time.

  • Two peer-reviewed articles? You didn't even bother to do a Google search on keywords "Richard Dawkins bibliograpy"? His list of publications in esteemed journals, ranging from Zeitschrift für Tierpsychologie to Nature, is SOMEWHAT lengthier. Check your facts properly.

  • "Women are fucking crazy" - haha, well considering what the Bible has to say about women, I don't blame you for thinking that. Why any woman would want to be a Christian after reading the Bible is beyond my comprehension.
