He is indeed a kind of crusading atheist, and makes no bones about his opposition not just to religious extremism but also to all species of religious faith -- a phenomenon he regards as fundamentally irrational and deeply dangerous. Religious moderates, he points out, have an unfortunate tendency to lend their perceived legitimacy to more extreme faith-based positions. They do this in large part by encouraging the common belief that accepting religious claims in the utter absence of evidence, and treating them as immune to rational criticism, is perfectly reasonable behavior.]]> http://www.newscloud.com/read/The_flying_spaghetti_monster http://www.newscloud.com/read/Richard_Dawkins_The_God_Delusion http://www.newscloud.com/read/Me_and_Ricky_Dawkins
