If You Believe It's True It's Easier To Understand

This video is of an interview with Dr. Richard Dawkins, author of the God Delusion and his most recent work The Greatest Show On Earth. Dawkins is the typical pro-evolution atheist elitist. I have no issue with his having taken a stance and doing a very good job of trying to convince people why his opinion is the correct one. It's just the way it's done and the arrogance.

Here are my notes (I paraphrase a lot of this) with comments in RED:
  • Dawkins, trying to assert that evolution is not a theory, but rather is fact says "If you stop thinking of it as a theory and start thinking of it as fact, it's a lot more believable" Really!? Am I the only one to see through that? So if I just stop thinking objectively then I'll see it your way.
  • Speaking of what evidence is most compelling to sway a person away from evolution as just being a theory and towards it being a fact he states "Comparing DNA between species you see an almost identical digital count that falls into a family tree. And if you look at it long enough you will be convinced" Again with the "if you look at it long enough" thing. If I look long enough at b.s. websites that say our landing on the moon was a fake, I might start to believe that too. Also, answer me this, how could random processes come up with 'digital' information anyway?
  • An interesting item; Dawkins compares those in America who do or do not believe in creationism to those who are for Palin or Obama. Uh huh..good analysis
  • When asked if he's concerned that his book The God Delusion offends creationists he states "Creationists don't read books anyway, except for one book. My books are aimed at the intelligent lay person who does read books..." You elitist arrogant jack-ass. That's a great way to stifle any meaningful debate on the issue. Just call someone with a differing opinion "stupid and closed minded". Kinda like calling those who don't agree with Obama "racists", Hmmmm
  • Speaking of The God Delusion, Dawkins states that, "..it was a humorous book; full of laughs" Oh yes, it was a knee slapper all right. Again insulting those with a differing opinion by calling them "delusional". It was a hoot!...at the expense of God and His followers.
Elitist doofus:
