If they kept it to themselves it would be nice yes (as in didn't impact on everyone...(I don't mean being preachy as some of us are accused of the same....maybe rightly so such is the nature of debate)

I actually think someone like Richard Dawkins, as much as I agree with him, can go a little overboard from his side of the fence. I mean he seems really determined, maybe too determined to put his point across.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

He is a pwick tbh. But it gets him fame and money

He won't sit and discuss either

Wait, people still believe in the bible over here?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Galvs science of today is in the bible of yesteryear
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't know why God and evolution can't just co-exist. Does it matter if he made us all chimps first?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Again not the point, or the discussion

I don't have a problem with evolution, certain aspects of it anyway

The guy mocks religion and got called out and has nothing

Live and let live I say, discuss and debate no probs but get on your high horse and have Nada then you asked for it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well a lot of it is morally questionable and contradictory and lends itself to mockery, but as long as one's beliefs don't infringe on anyone else then no problem with it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------


I am happy to discuss what people see morally questionable and contradictory. Also happy to take to task those who are religious
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know the complete ins and outs of the bible, but depending on how literally you take the content there's a lot that's morally questionable going on. God's a very naughty boy in it at the best of times.

Watching dawkin debate religious people is hilarious its the same every time, dawkins 'i dont agree with that, check out x x x' religious person 'well i dont agree with that this says x x x ' back and forth, in the end they still leave thinking the same as they did before.

The thing is though you can't knock all religions based on just the bible

Much like Galv and Zlatan then

Well this all started (pardon the pun) back at the beginning of where humans came from....
You went off on a tangent either because you didn't like the question or were being deliberately vague...IMO
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I answered that for you

Beat me to it
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Opening paragraph from the BBC article:

A French soldier guarding the Louvre in Paris has shot a man who tried to attack a security patrol with a machete shouting "Allahu Akbar", police say.

'Shouting Allahu Akbar' has become the new media innuendo for suspected Muslim, replacing the old favourite 'of possible Middle Eastern appearance'.

If they kept it to themselves it would be nice yes (as in didn't impact on everyone...(I don't mean being preachy as some of us are accused of the same....maybe rightly so such is the nature of debate)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I actually think someone like Richard Dawkins, as much as I agree with him, can go a little overboard from his side of the fence. I mean he seems really determined, maybe too determined to put his point across.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He is certainly on a missionTbf all these Super Atheists should make their books free for all if they really ARE trying to educate rather than capitalise....but that's another debate I suppose
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't mind him having his mission to re-educate particularly when it comes to scientific education in schools in the States. But it appears he he's rather determined to convert as many people as he can when I sometimes feel "Well if it makes them happy.."

You guys type too fast.

You said the Koran doesn't profess this (Man in Gods image) but that God/Allah created us......did I have that correct?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So I did answer?

Read back mate to what I said and not what you think I said

I think its frustration on his part, ive watched him go into a long explanation about the development of the eye, and all the guy got back was 'im not sure about that'

You are going to have to explain what you are on about here if you want an informed response

Your all over the shop here. You ask a question I answer you go off somewhere else them accuse of deflection

Were you never taught a bit of give and take?
I gave you the chance to rectify my 'mistake' by asking 'did I have that correct?'
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I said my religion doesn't say one thing but does say creator (shortened version). You keep adding bits. I just want to clarify and you have spent all the pages since saying I haven't answered then show I did
