persephonesays...Richard tried, but he didn't manage to pidgeon-hole the Catholic church quite how he would have liked to, on the topic of evolution.
Dawkins is about 50 years too late in trying to make the church look bad in its view.
He could make a much more effective use of all his energy in questioning Catholics, by discussing their beliefs about the concept of sin, abortion, celibacy for priests, women having limited roles in the church and hang-ups about sexuality. These are issues where the Catholic church still lags behind.
When Mr. Coyne says that no tradition can claim that they have the absolute truth, I don't believe that Mr Dawkins can claim such open-mindedness. Dawkins reminds me of a child who feels he's been lied to by all the adults in his life and desperately wants to catch them out in the lie.
What he's missing, is that the great lies he thinks they are making, really don't mean a thing, in the grand scheme of things. I rekon if he meditated more, he'd mellow out and know how to hang loose with people, no matter what their philosophical persuasions might be.
Trancecoachsays...When will these religious crackpots come to their senses and start realizing that science has something to offer in areas that religion doesn't reach...
Oh wait. It seems George Coyle got the memo.
If only the evangelicals would get onboard.
