Title: Time Gets a Creationist to Write Richard Dawkins Profile for the Time 100 list
Post by: Flannel Boy on May 03, 2007, 07:25:40 PM: http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/time100/article/0,28804,1595326_1595329_1616137,00.html (http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/time100/article/0,28804,1595326_1595329_1616137,00.html)
Michael Behe, a proponent of intelligent design and a senior fellow of the Discovery Institute, wrote the profile for an atheist evolutionary biologist. That's like getting a Flat-Earther to write a profile for Galileo (not to say Dawkins is in the same league as Galileo). The only thing Behe really says about Dawkins is that he isn't a fence sitter. Well at least he has "determination" and is not "lukewarm"... too bad he's wrong according to the Bible!

Post by: Candyflip on May 03, 2007, 07:40:28 PM: That was so short it was pointless.

"This guy is Richard Dawkins. He was raised Anglican but never looked back after he read Darwin when he was 16. He holds the viewpoint that religion holds society down, and is very firm in his beliefs."

That's all I got out of it.

Hasn't everyone who doesn't live in the 18th century outgrown Deism?

You're a very smart person Malek (with a good memory to boot), don't be the asshole kid that has to tell everyone at school that Santa doesn't exist.

Post by: Phoenix Dark on May 04, 2007, 02:35:53 PM: The most logical conclusion is that Richard Dawkins is really God, and he's just tired of distinguished mentally-challenged fellows believing in him.
