I'm not sure you do. I think Dawkins is essentially right about how religion is evil, and I think he's done a great deal for the atheist "movement". At the same, he came off looking like a sexist in the Rebecca Watson fiasco.
The point is, I think his message is correct and important, and yet I think he's probably a sexist. These two are orthogonal attributes.
- JanezStupar 15y agoI have an extremely bad feeling. Lets suppose that religion is the root of all evil. So the atheist movement goes and in time erases religion from the world. Then what? I don't think ideas exist in a vacuum. I think that for some types of ideas and ideals they can only be replaced by an idea of the same type. And I do sense some (disturbing) religious elements in the atheist movement. Single mindedness would be the worst in my opinion.
