that Christianity may actually be our best defense against aberrant forms of religion that threaten the world.

That includes atheism.

[originalbuckeye]

Sheesh! Pigs must be flying! Dawkins must be crying like a little girl at the realization that Christianity might actually be the bulwark that allows the world to withstand the evils of the radical Islamists.

[DungeonMaster]

Atheism = socialism/communism = a world of terror.

[dartuser]

Seems the God-slayer now recognizes the need to have Christians on the front line to protect his desire to defame the Lord they serve.

The irony is luscious ...

Just proves that, you may not like guns, and you may not believe in God, but someday, you just might find yourself calling someone with a gun, and praying they get there on time.

[Jan_Sobieski]

This sounds like Islamophobia! He will soon be silenced by the powers that be.

Professional Atheist Dawkins Says Christianity a Bulwark Against Something Worse

Someone who is starting to wake the f*** up.

Christianity is civilization. You can't have one with out it, or something very similar to it.

[Fred Hayek]

Maybe a Little Birdie is working on Richard Dawkins.

This is a start. Dawkins is starting to realize how black the world would be without Judeo-Christian morality. He might have come to this realization earlier if he had read more history or had a better appreciation of non-Western cultures, but better late than never. If he lives long enough, he may work his way to faith. He would not be the first.

[Texas Eagle]

Dawkins wondered aloud whether Christianity might indeed offer an antidote to protect western civilization against jihad.

An antidote? What an interesting word.

What do antidotes do? Save lives, anyone?

Does the world need to be...ahem....saved?

[bravo whiskey]

God denier yes, God slayer, in his dreams.

[liberalh8ter]

I suspect his comments are more introspective than they appear....that tends to happen as people approach their sell-by date.

[posterchild]

Wow. In the past few weeks I’ve read this, read liberals on other forums worry about encroaching 3rd world misogeny, and saw liberals suggesting not everyone needs to live in the US. The world must be going insane... or something.

[dfwgator]

He is not the first atheist who has admitted this.

[PGR88]

Amazing - Dawkins is just steps away.

So he is almost saying - God gave us his Son, and the church he established, to protect humankind from satan and forces of evil and guide people towards goodness?

I am convinced he will give up atheism in a very short time. This prodigal son will return soon.

[Harpotoo]

Funny how sympathies finally find Religion!-)

[PCPOET7]

Some times it is the little realizations that leave an opening in mans hart. This is an opening a truth that Dawkins is seeing that he is having a hard time denying as much as he wants too. I myself flirted with Atheism when I was in High school and college. It was a small realization of the nature of god and Christ that brought me back to professing My belief in god. rather then being insulting I prefer to pray that Dawkins takes this realization and builds on it so that maybe one day he to can say “”I BELIVE IN GOD AND HE LOVES ME FOR BEING ME””

[Rock N Jones]

Next for Dawkins is to accept that Christ is man’s only hope for salvation!
