Professor Dawkins-Science class

For a professor of biology he certainly makes a good charlatan. He says brain size make us smart?, now he believes in phrenology. No surprise there since Darwin subscribed to craniometry to support his racist evolutionary philosophy.

Every theist who has ever derided Richard Dawkins as "militant" in his atheism needs to watch this video. A good portion ot these questions pertained to how evolution relates to God and belief in him, and to higher meaning. It is at this point that if Dawkins was as ideological as theists portray him to be that he could be as aggressive as he was in "The God Delusion" and attack religion. Notice he did not make the attempt to indoctrinate, only to inform. Why can't theists be this fair?

continued from previous post) However, I am optimistic, while my country has, in large part, decided to cringe from this subject, people in other countries, like England, are teaching their kids to engage Darwins theory with intellectual honesty. Bravo England!

This video segment makes me sad and strangely optimistic at the same time. It makes me sad, because I know that such an intellectually invigorating lecture, about the implications of one of the most seminal scientific theories, will not be discussed in the classrooms of my country, the USA (continued).

Ha, the girl at 7:15 is smiling and then tries to wipe it away when the camera swings 'round. Little things like that are funny to me. :)

Dawkins has been ambiguous about his beliefs of life elsewhere, but that's not a bad thing because we don't really know. And he is far more concerned with first getting people educated about the life HERE (there seem to be some folks who still don't grasp natural selection).

Dawkins doesn't rate the Drake equation? He keeps playing down the possibility of other life, it seems.

If i were asked the first question, i would be a dick. The fine tuning argument is so annoying.

He said POSSIBLY only planet with life, like 5+ times. Chill!
