Gold: Insulting Dawkins with religious metaphor

2007 September 6

In response to some Dawkins bashing in the UK Herald where Ron Ferguson compares Dawkins to Jesus and his admirers to cults etc (supposedly as an insult), Black Sun Journal writes;

…When you use the terminology of religion to defend religion against a scientist, aside from flaunting your lack of any rejoinder, all you do is concede that you know religion is bunk.

If you thought tent revivals, the second coming, Bhagwans and cult leaders were so great, you’d be paying Professor Dawkins a compliment.

Nice way to fall on your rhetorical sword there, mate!

(Black Sun, 2007)

Gold. Not really insulting (for Dawkins) though is it? ;-)
