I could care less if anyone ignores the obvious, as long as they aren't actually starting a war over it or stopping the press, which usually is not the case in personal debates like this. Let the harmless be happy. Must we turn nonreligiosity into a goddamn religion? Fucking Dawkins.

when you see science under attack from the god camp, can you expect anything other than a counteroffensive? the church burned books AND people since the middle ages, now the born-again dunces threaten to drive america back to amish times-- i would leave them alone if they weren't constantly twisting my arm to give up on knowledge in the name of the superstitions and to post their ten commandments in front of courthouses.

furthermore, i have had countless of religious proselityzers knock on my door to offer pamplets and salvation, but never, ever, have i had an atheist knock my door to offer salvation from religious blindness.

so the numbers are against you, i'm afraid.
