The God Delusion

by Richard Dawkins (Goodreads Author)
As an agnostic I can wholeheartedly promise you that this book is so tedious it will reduce you to tears. He debunks God as a concept and in the process completely misses the point of God. He then just carries on repeating himself through chapter after chapter after boring chapter. If there really was a god, he wouldn't allow people like this idiot to write mind numbing drivel and then market it with tacky gimmicks like the "Come all ye faithless" Christmas Card I got with mine....I should have smelt a rat there and then.

Totally agree with your review. Undoubtedly, Dawkins is an intelligent man but his vitriol and bloody-mindedness merely reduce his argument to the level of a child having a tantrum.

Had dinner with another couple last week. They'd just read some new book by Dawkins, and droned on about it all evening. I've learned to keep my mouth shut, so I had a lot of time to think.Why do the most committed believers in the evolutionary theory always choose the sorriest mates? She a brachiocephalic dullard. He's an anemic wee person. Neither would survive long on the African savannah.
It probably has something to do with their decision to never have children. in itself, this is like giving the finger to Darwin. They have chosen to exterminate their own genetic lines to help the planet.
I have my own issues with God. But would rather spend the summer at a Jehovah's witness camp than go through another evening with this new breed of proselytizing atheist bore
I absolutely loved the comment "If there really was a god, he wouldn't allow people like this idiot to write mind numbing drivel". I have no problem with people debating God/religion/evolution - but Dawkins fails to produce intelligent advances in any of these topics.
