I have said that Dawkins is an intellectual lightweight.

Notice that he never addresses the question. He avoids it entirely and runs away. He is a good jokester but the joke is on those poor souls that buy into this bs.

Seemingly, Dawkins, like you cannot address the question.

I really do wonder why. It is a simple answer; well to me it is simple, maybe not for you.




Edit to add: From a previous post:

There is also the problem with the initial "origin of life" situation. Here is a quote from an avowed evolutionist:

“The complexity of the simplest known type of cell is so great that it is impossible to accept that such an object could have been thrown together suddenly by some kind of freakish, vastly improbable, event. Such an occurrence would be indistinguishable from a miracle.”

― Michael Denton, Evolution: A Theory In Crisis


Dawkins said pretty much the same thing. I suspect there is no model for explaining this origin of life thing.

But like Dawkins says; paraphrased: There is no God and the universe just is here, maybe forever, with no cause and although it is very, very unlikely, life just happened. So, the universe is just here and life is just here but I am sure that there is no God that had anything to do with it.

Sad joke played out before our eyes.


I've already addressed this. Perhaps you did not like the answer, but it was addressed.

I'm not going to lie and pretend to believe in a god for which I see no evidence in hope that he will be too stupid to know I'm just pretending to get into heaven. I'd much rather face my judge with my principles and dignity intact.

Heck, maybe that was the right answer all along. All you have is human texts claiming to be the word of God. Copies, of copies, of copies of reactions, and in some cases out and out forgeries. Inconsistent, contradictory claims not supported by any independent sources.

"What you were really so naive that you believed, or were pretending to believe? HA! Wrong answer, off to Hell with you.

No.

If there is a judgement day (which I doubt), I choose not to attend as the either the fool, not the liar.

You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
