My post does not mean I endorse everything Dawkins says. I just posted it for information. It is good that he took on Islam because it has liberals in a bind when that happens. You can throw this at liberals who defend Islam and watch the fun as they get confused because one of their idols has bashed Islam.

I don’t think that Islamofascists deserve politeness and that the demand to explain the punishment for apostasy in Islam was a good one. Also, I wouldn’t put Michael Moore in the same league as Dawkins. Dawkins has at least criticized Islam, I doubt if Moore would do that.

I understand what you are saying now. Yep, Moore would pee his xxxxl pants if faced with an Islamist. However, an Islamist may see Moore as a useful tool so he may be safe until some of their other enemies are dealt with. I don’t, however, change my opinion that Dawkins is an idiot who resorts to very vague, ad-hominem attacks that use circular reasoning or a lack of rational logic, to attack those of faith simply for their faith. He has even gone so far as to attack Stephen Hawking for his very obscure references to God in his books. If that isn’t the height of arrogance, I don’t know what is.
