Whoever is seething saying the God Delusion is cringe just gets filtered by Dawkings apalling personality & has never read it.

He goes into extravagent depth with citations on everything and visciously debunks Christianity & Islam with archeological, geological, historical & other scientific evidence from every applicable field possible to the point where it becomes as blatently fake as Mormonism.

He also dives into the church organizations themselves & their history of horrendous corruption. You will come out a changed person when you see religions. They are nothing but cults. It's a must read.

Pretty sure that's not the case but go on...

You can’t “debunk” faith and anyone attempting to do so is merely wasting energy.
>>
>>24743111
Okay and? We get it, Abrahamism is retarded and should have been either smothered in the grave or stomped into oblivion by the Romans. Some tranny loving atheists who caught onto the obvious isn't impressive nor has much to say about God and divinity beyond it. Scientism still has zero clue how to answer the question why there is anything other than nothing let alone how consciousness actually works.

This is why they hate it.
His writing is a good read, but I liked Thomas Paine's Age of Reason. Written while stewing in a French prison awaiting a death sentence that never came.

Faith really is Not Wanting to Know

Dawkins is not that great at engaging non-Creationist/ID arguments. There are theists and atheists alike in the philosophy of religion who are sharper and more rigorous than he is.

>who created god? um yeah i believe in uncaused causes when it has a scientific precept attached to it instead of a philosophical one tho
>no i wont study ontology sweaty sorry
>evolution proves god isnt real because, well it just does okay
>also morals cant exist without religion, therefore god doesn't real too checkmate christians
Massively embarrassing fedora tipping arguments. Selfish Gene is embarrassing too.
>did you know? patters are things that are likely to repeat, and things that repeat are likely to form patterns, whoa right?
I have no idea why anyone gives Dawkins the time of day.
>>
>>24743137
No, its not something that ought to be scrutinized. If it gives people meaning in their lives what purpose do you get from deconstructing that except to be a joyless fucktard? Do you hear yourself?
>>
>>24743216
Yes, however this book cannot be understated. It is still a slam dunk. That aside, can you recommend me some of these others I can look into for my own personal study?

A favorite from the theist POV:
https://www.amazon.com/Principle-Sufficient-Reason-Reassessment/dp/0521184398

A favorite from the atheist POV:
https://www.amazon.com/Divine-Hiddenness-Human-Reason-Schellenberg/dp/0801473462

It's not that Dawkins is unaware of such arguments. It's just that he can't handle them with as much erudition as specialists.

lol you just outed yourself as a massive idiot
>>
>>24743291
Dawkins is the idiot for thinking gene expression doesn't depend on environment and development. It's just more fedora tipping 'were just atoms bro' thinking

>geological
>As he was now drawing near, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” And some of the Pharisees in the multitude said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”
Ironic

>whoever is-

I'd pump the brakes here man, because thats a lot of assuming.

>>24743124
The lack of responses to this post is telling that atheist is just an anti-Abrahamic knee jerk ideology

I am not impressed with secular morality and secular ethics.
