Well that explains a lot.

This is yet another reason why child molestation is evil. It pushes children away from God.

[RinaseaofDs]

Now it all makes sense. I feel sorry for the guy. Before, I just thought he was an arrogant hedonist. He’s just broken, and has been broken since some wormy bastard had carnal knowledge of him.

When nothing is “Wrong” than anything “OK”. The ultimate goal of atheists. (Or antitheists)

Mild pedophilia is like being slightly murdered. The damage done is just as bad, no matter how much you try to sugar coat it. Pedophiles deserve their own special place in hell, with much harsher punishment than the average damned.

Well.. that’s all I care to know about Dawkins.. not only is he a God-hater, he’s for child molestation.

Some sick folk out there!

[ronniesgal]

big oops. Thought this said Richard Dawson, of Family Feud Fame.
I need some sleep!

"Mild pedophilia", it's the next "step".

After that, full pedophilia and laws saying you can't discriminate against them nor try to protect your kids from them. Also, it will be taught (forced) as "normal" in elementary schools.

Touching kids is always an outrage, and the one who does it deserves the severest treatment.

But...

Being touched by an adult does not mean that one who has been touched must suffer permanent damage or alteration of life because of it.

Our culture insists that if one is a victim, he must be affected forever by it, and must display his wounds from then on. Even conservatives, who in other cases pooh pooh the culture of victimization, buy into this psychobabble.

By God’s grace, very many people have happily moved on from all kinds of personal trespasses and injuries. It simply does not follow that if one is molested or harmed, he is required to be encumbered for the rest of his life.

Dawkins was fondled? Explains a lot.

[ReaganÜberAlles]

I’ll take the guy, who i dont know or care to know that much about, at his word. If he says he wasn’t harmed, who am I to argue wiht him?

DISCLAIMER(for those who I know will need it): I am in no way in favor of child sexual or other abuse. Whew! That was close.

[OpusatFR]

Molesting a powerless child is just evil. I should think anyone forcing their attentions on those smaller weaker and less able to defend themselves against unwanted touching would be soundly ridiculed and despised.

Shame on you and your lack of compassion common sense and ugly moral values. I suppose rape would be something one should just lay back and enjoy too?

"Mild pedophilia"

Is that like being "a little bit pregnant?"

Excerpt from the article:

http://www.christianpost.com/news/richard-dawkins-stirs-controversy-for-mild-pedophilia-remarks-104174/

"Being fondled by the Latin master in the Squash Court was a disagreeable sensation for a nine-year-old, a mixture of embarrassment and skin-crawling revulsion, but it was certainly not in the same league as being led to believe that I, or someone I knew, might go to everlasting fire," wrote Dawkins. "I do not believe that I, or they, suffered lasting, or even temporary damage from this disagreeable physical abuse of power. Given the Latin Master's eventual suicide, maybe the damage was all on his side."

That's the thing about atheists/moral relativists such as Dawkins, they can rationalize the molestation of little boys (as Dawkins is doing with his own experience of being molested) and twist that into a condemnation that teaching our kids morals through faith and the consequences for bad behavior/sin.

I really don't need to speak the obvious to my fellow Freepers, but I will, Richard Dawkins is one twisted individual!
