I've turned anti-atheist over the past several months. at least anti-"New Atheism". case in point is a Dawkins quote, saying that theology shouldn't be taught in universities because science has put a man on the moon and theology has accomplished nothing.
Dawkins is not the atheist pope, Tweed.
So? I'm sure you've criticized prominent Christians before. Dawkins is no different.
That's not what i'm getting at nor he for that matter. Disliking people who are atheist because of Dawkins is a bit like disliking Christians in general because of the Pope or Fred Phelps.
if you read my post I said I was anti-"New Atheism", which is an idea rather than institution or collection of people. Dawkins and his The God Delusion form an indelible part of the New Atheist canon. as Chris Hedges said: "we have nothing to fear from those who do or do not believe in God." it's what they do with it. and tossing theology out of universities because it has never put a man on the moon is not a cool thing to do with your atheism, in my opinion. and, to be sure, Dawkins is not the lone atheist to hold such an opinion.
