Hour 1: Outgrowing Dawkins
Written by on August 5, 2024
In his book Outgrowing God, Richard Dawkins purports to demolish the claims of mainstream religion, starting with belief in a Creator. All of life’s big questions can apparently be answered by science. But does he even understand what he rejects? Our guest’s answer is a resounding ‘No’. The high priest of New Atheism quite literally doesn’t know what he’s talking about, because the deity he rejects is a childish parody. From this flow many straw man arguments. Our guest will offer incisive rebuttals and positive suggestions for advancing an often-sterile debate.
