  How about handcuffing Dawkins to Ken Ham for a week? They would have to do everything together.

    "arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully"

    Richard Dawkins "The God Delusion".

    Rather than give my own views on this typical Dawkins vitriolic passage that no-doubt will have choir-fulls of atheists in raptures, I shall do the school examination question.

    Discuss.
