Richard Dawkins has not changed his view, you might wish he has softened this since two years ago, why don't we apply the "rule of time past" to all arguments made. Hell we can forgive the Watchtower since all of their weird End Time claims are old but we won't because we know the Watchtower will continue to preach "Doom and Gloom", "Don't live Now because the End is Near!". Why is it when people post videos of famous leaders on their side of the argument its said "How old is that Video?" I heard Dawkins say the same thing less than two years ago, he's gotten in trouble making weird claims about Pedophiles, Rape and other topics most find abhorrent here.
I must admit, Dawkins way was my way too but I've read a lot of posts, written a lot of posts, responded to a lot of posts and been responded to a lot over the past few days.
My feeling is that I was wrong and so is Dawkins.
There is a better way and that is to challenge without insulting.
However, I understand where Dawkins is coming from I think.
In the past, religious leaders went totally unchallenged. They considered themselves to be above the law. They were able to use and abuse mankind. Many of them did. I'll just mention mind control and paedophilia."
Doltologist, your refreshing view, you know where this all leads and nobody is trying to hide the fact about the cover-ups in religious circles dealing with pedophiles and death. I find it dishearting when authors people rally against say wicked things their followers quicky say "Hey, when did he say that?" and someone says "Oh, he said that one year ago!" they say "Oh, he probably softened his approach, let's all forgive and forget how he feels because people change." People don't change that quick unless their about to get kicked off the Debate Circuit and lose all their audience that provide them with a very nice living. Change only comes when they lose money, not because someone said "Hey, your going to get people killed, get out there and tell people you were wrong!" To date Richard has never changed his mind, he stand's firmly behind his beliefs people should mock anyone religious or spiritual dealing with the metaphysical realm.
It's wrong to say "What's the time line of Richard Dawkins video" , to a reply of "He is still behind this kind of mockery, in fact he's said some very stupid things about child-sex, rape and topics everyone here with some form of ethics will angrily denouce! Doltogoist, your reasonable, you see what he is saying is wrong so why do people try to qualify unambiguous hate speech?
