The God Delusion -IV

The God Delusion is sure to garner significant attention in the media and in popular culture.

The Delusion of Dawkins – II

Dawkins states, real scientists are naturalists. As such, they eliminate entirely the question of a supernatural being’s existence. “The metaphorical or pantheistic God of the physicists is light years away from the interventionist, miracle-wreaking, thought-reading, sin-punishing, prayer-answering God of the Bible, of priests, mullahs and rabbis, and of ordinary language. Deliberately to confuse the two [...]
