Not only has Dawkins ruined science, he’s ruined atheism too.
20 years ago, an atheist was an intellectual with whom one could have a reasonable dialogue.
Today, most people experience atheists as bellicose angry males who commonly suffer from depression, who post anonymous tirades all over the internet so they can share their misery with everyone else.
We have the New Atheists to thank for this. And their four horsemen. Dawkins – Dennett – Harris – Hitchens.
Wanna have an intelligent discussion about atheism? Read Voltaire, Nietzche or Bertrand Russell.
Agree or disagree, they will force you to think.
Wanna have a pointless shouting match with a bunch of mannerless name-callers who make up just-so stories about warm ponds and lucky lightning strikes and think they’re doing science? Sit down with guys who read Krauss, Dennett, Hitchens and Harris. Walk into a roomful of Dawkins fans.
They will force you to emote.
So, dear atheist, why are you sitting here defending any of these proselytizers?
Dawkins was molested by a homosexual as a child, so naturally he's screwed up.
Why not look over the threads at all those where Believers are attacking Atheists for NOT BELIEVING
Remember these gems?
"Without God how do you keep from raping women?" Forgetting, of course, that little Virgen Mary thing.
"Be good for goodness sake" and the outrage it caused among the Believers?
Maybe, just maybe, the perceived attitude is a response to Believer attitudes AND having to explain the same factual information 3 or 5 hundred times.
Myself? Don't know.
"God" doesn't matter.
Whatever one supposes "God" to be has no REAL impact on the REAL world.
No impact, doesn't matter.
If, in fact, "God" does exist then, "God,"

So, if "God" doesn't matter, does "God" exist?
In greek mythology the fall of the Pantheon was attributed to the Gods' failure to care for their followers, people.
This caused people to stop believing.
As fewer believed, the Gods lost their power to command which caused even fewer to believe.
My best guess is MAYBE.
But God's not something worth worshipping.
