Richard Dawkins is one of the most brilliant minds we've had this century thus far. I have deep respect for his work and have read a few of his books.
Most (religious) people hate him because he knows how to explain very complex things in simple ways that make sense and are persuasive based on a truth. They also hate him because he has walked the walk of religion. He grew up a protestant, had confirmation, and he then kept an open mind, which caused him to change his mind.
I really suggest everyone here to read "mount improbable" and "the blind watchmaker."

Good, he should. The Torah alone makes no sense, let alone the full OT, any of the Christian texts, or the islamic texts.
Sounds like Dawkins has the right idea. Count me in.

We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. I wish they were alive so I could scoff in their faces.

Richard Dawkins is a scientist and he tells the truth. We're all the richer for his intellect and his courage.

nicely, i understand, this became into asked 4 years in the past,, yet I purely want to assert some words to u and all people else who would be reading for the subsequent ...destiny years.. So, am a Christian. i assume my view ought to count variety right here too. i think of,, u ought to stop finding for evidence of something, to do with GOD, it is why it somewhat is talked approximately as faith,, the way GOD designed it, is that u will on no account get any practice until, u have first blindly long previous the "silly" path of religion, I positioned silly in quote through fact, even I agree it sounds silly to in basic terms believe in something without a practice, yet, GOD in his limitless awareness thinks it somewhat is the main suitable thank you to get people saved.. So it somewhat is somewhat as much as u, u can flow the "silly finding" path, and settle for JESUS Christ as ur lord and saviour, and be saved from everlasting damnation, OR u can place self belief in proves and technological know-how then wait until finally it somewhat is too previous due.. My suggestion: believe in GOD, and in his son JESUS Christ without a practice, receive and confess him,, and write back to me if u are not getting a practice to flow with it. The the practice is HIS candy Holy Spirit, whom the international can not receive yet in basic terms people who've gained Christ and been born back. I gained Christ 12years in the past, and so happy I did.. thank you JESUS.

Correct, he scoffs at claims that are not supported by evidence.

What I would say is: If you don't want your beliefs to be scoffed at, then don't have any scoff-worthy beliefs.
