His realization is oh so right. The question is: Is branch already cut through too far?

I wonder how many people will be spitting tacks because they feel that Dawkins has betrayed them.

Or his fellow unbelievers will be thinking the same thing but perhaps not be wanting to admit it.

Love this quote, Michael: “Dawkins’ own brand of evangelical atheism are both expressions of a specifically Christian culture - as Dawkins himself, sitting on the branch he’s been sawing through and gazing nervously at the ground far below, seems to have begun to realise.” Wow!!!

I haven’t kept up with Dawkins lately but that’s interesting.

Thanks! An excellent article which captures the internal contradictions of Dawkins' logically inconsistent and incoherent position. Interestingly, Christopher Hitchens was also a cultural Christian and admitted before he died that if there was one Christian left on the planet, he would not seek to convince them that there was no God. Their consciences must be loudly calling them to their potential Damascene conversions...
