In the meantime, some Christians demonstrate their peaceful minds

Anyone can call themselves christians.

I havent looked at the link. Will have a look later.

I think it says a lot about Richard Dwakins that he is reading that stuff out loud and allowing himself to be filmed doing it. Is he really so unsure of his standing?

Silly man.

Hilarious

Glad you agree Anya ;)

I don't think it's at all funny. We know there are some sad individuals out there. Can't honestly see the point in sharing it.

Didn't think you would jingl- but that's life, each to their own.

I think it illustrates rather well what happens when one group of people is stereotyped by a few extremists.

He looks a bit like Julian Assange. [shudder]

If you want a serious reason for sharing it, perhaps it's simply highlighting the hypocrisy of so-called Christians, who take the time to write such filth and spew out such hate.

Yes, they are a tiny minority like all extremists, but they exist. We do well to remember that.

What happens? What group of people?

PS Is RD gay?

Maybe they just don't like him. I don't.

Obviously, they are not very successful Christians. Haven't quite got the hang of loving their neighbour.

It seems he is. I didn't know that.

I love that phrase 'successful Christians' Jingl

Is he gay? - I thought he was married with children - not that he could not still be gay. He wrote an open letter to his DD about the importance of reason.

Well, we have to keep trying.

They do seem rather to have skipped over the love thy neighbour bit indeed. But this is what fundamentalists look and sound like from any religion.

He's been married three times! Each time to a woman. Poor sods.

There are many agnositics (including me) and atheists who find Dawkins distasteful.

I don't think he's gay, is he? He is a great supporter of the gay movement and gay rights generally, so I suppose that's as good a reason as any for some of those idiots to attack him.

Does it make any difference if he is gay or not ??? Irrelevant dear Watson, no?

Just interesting. Same as it would be about anyone really. Human nature I guess.

Someone raised a question, granjura. Rude to ignore it, no?

O of course- but an un-necessary distraction from the subject. From what I can gather, Dawkins is not gay but he encouraged gay men to come out rather than be repressed as they were when religion(s) forced them to repress.

The reason I raised it granjura was I wondered if these ranters knew something I didn't or whether they were completely nuts. Sort of 'don't let the truth get in the way' when you're spewing out hatred and curses.
