RE: [asa] Dawkins is at it again

Perhaps Dawkins has doubts about his "faith" and he is feeling the burden of a possible, real hell.

Subject: [asa] Dawkins is at it again

I've long said that the New Atheist movement is the mirror image of an fundamentalist, religious movement. Thus, it should surprise anyone that Richard Dawkins is now attacking.....Harry Potter:

What's of more concern is that Dawkins still seems obsessed with peddling his pseudoscientific bigotry:

""It is evil to describe a child as a Muslim child or a Christian child. I think labelling children is child abuse and I think there is a very heavy issue, for example, about teaching about hell and torturing their minds with hell.

"It's a form of child abuse, even worse than physical child abuse."

So in the ethical world of Dawkins, it is better to break a child's jaw than to expose the child to Catholic teaching about hell. That's just sick.
