At first I was worried that Dawkins turned NSFW on this site.
I got it now.

Science is on the right track--but people don't care. It is more about money than religion *As is everything.* Soooooo, if people do not apply science *Global warming for ex* then what does science matter?

I really have a problem with scientists identifying themselves as "evolutionists."

Evolution is a scientific theory. It is not an "-ism," belief system which suggests that it is anything except a logical explanation of natural processes.

Such self-identification suggests a political position, rather than an educational one. Sadly, the politically charged-nature of the debate has forced scientists like Dawkins to adopt belief systems which undercut the inherent value and importance of their work.

So much love and tolerance in the hate mail, what outstanding Christians.

I was going to upvote it just because Richard Dawkins was in it...but when I got to the hate mail part, I couldn't upvote it fast enough! Great stuff. "..and that right now, your destiny is all fucked up!"

Do you hold the same views about Botanists? Generalists? Cyclists? Pianists? Guitarist? Vocalists? Realists? Psychiatrists? Violists or even...scientists?

I myself am an Atheist, but I still use the terms "Oh jesus, Jesus fucking christ, God damn it, and good god"
just because I grew up using those expressions, and they get the point across.

Doesn't mean anything really, just like all other "Curse" words, it's just a word with a hollow meaning.
