I prefer Dawkins' book. Although, he did have the benefit of modern knowledge and science. Also, it wasn't translated -- it was in native English. So I can sort of hear in my head Richard Dawkin's tea-sipping, crumpet-loving voice while I read it.
Which do you think is better? Why?

Dawkins all the way! Because unlike the Bible, it makes sense.

It doesn't explain every argument. It doesn't explain how three different men can all see the same vision at the same time while fully awake. Nor does it explain how men can know the future with chilling detail. It doesn't really explain how people are healed of incurable diseases, or how people born blind suddenly receive their sight when given a priesthood blessing. It doesn't explain how someone can suddenly talk fluently in a language they have never studied. Nor does it explain how patients who suffered heart failure can describe every nuance of an operation during the time they were dead. It doesn't explain how a lost book scripture can be restored by revelation, and then verified by subsequent discoveries. It is just the sad ramblings of someone who thinks himself wise. Skepticism is a kind of mental blindness. It doesn't require any real intelligence. It isn't the sign of a high IQ. It isn't scientific. It stifles curiosity. It is philosophy at its worst, a religion without God. I believe people are capable of so much more than what they settle for.

The Bible, because it has been proven time and again to be true. Dawkins is merley a man, not God, or even inspired by God. I'll put my faith in the proven Word of God every time!!

I've only read the first 200 pages, and I have to say that it is much better. It is making me want to learn more. Always a sign of a good book.
Dawkins, and Adams are great

The God Delusion rocks. Christians won't read it though.
