Richard Dawkins: An atheist's call to arms

Briliant Richard Dawkins is Modern day Darwin, he is the champion of atheists. I have never been so proud to be a non-believer.

Actually, a better way to refer to myself is as a secular humanist, scientist, Positive Atheist (as it is a school of thought), Utilitarian, and Unitarian Universalist. These things tell you what I believe, not what I don't, that's the point, we don't need to be continuously critical of those who are religious.

Not all, just look at some threads here on youtube and you will find people who are atheists that are just as bigoted as some religious zealots. Again I AM an atheist as well, I just disagree with some of Dawkins' methods, I do NOT believe that atheists are hate spewing.

I said it was time for you to make a burger clown.

What about hate spewing atheists?

good thing. We should stand firm on our belief in science (which it-self changes and is not absolute mind you) and we should challenge the religious on matters of science, but not their fundamental beliefs as long as they do not teach violence or hatred.

By the way I meant to write George Bush Sr., sorry.

totally false, are not grounded on any factual basis, and inherently bigoted). Religious teachings being held with authority than science is not a good thing and Creationists are blasted fools. I agree that we must speak out when people start spewing words of hate in the name of religion, but should that change if those words are in the name of atheism? No, atheists have not done things like the Inquisition or the 9/11 Attacks, but absolutism often leads to conflict and hatred, witch is not a

it is very close to atheism (or some branches). Also, one must consider the hope and comfort religion can bring to people. Religion is not without its merits. I side with Positive Atheists, the motto of witch is "Serving people with no reason to believe." Of course I stand in just as strong opposition to things like George Bush Sn.'s comments about us, blurring the line between church and state (the Founding Fathers were Deists and any interpretation of America as a Christian nation is

to the ideas of 1930's labor organizers and are in fact what would be considered liberal in a modern sense (no matter how misconstrued they have been). The Bible (or at least the New Testament) also seems pretty constant on the message of love being the most important thing and rarely if ever in authentic (not added by the Church later) advocates violence. Also consider the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, his teachings were very good and without a god and denunciation of dogma,

I disagree with the idea of militant atheism. I am an atheist, but I don't think that religion is without its merits. I do not believe in God, YH*H (to prevent complain), Allah, or any other deity, but I do not throw out the Bible. The Bible is a great work of literature (for the most part) by any means, Ecclesiastes 3 is a beautiful work and the poem and the message that there is a time for everything is very good. Also, the Gospels are great works and Jesus' social teachings were comparable
