Quinn nailed Dawkins as a fundamentalist but it's too bad Dawkins isn't nimbler in live debate as Quinn's many other arguments are full of holes. Hi edsheppa! Would you give some examples of the "holes" in Quinn's arguments?

There are no holes in Quinns argument. Absent free will, morality can not exist and Dawkins thesis that religion is evil becomes a joke.

Quinn's arguments with holes? Sure, from the top,
- People stop believing in fairies when they grow up.
- Existence of matter is evidence for God.
- Atheists must reject objective morality and free will.
- You must have an uncaused cause for anything at all to exist.
- The uncaused cause and that unmoved mover is, by definition, God.
- I claim to know the probable answer (of the origin of matter).
