Richard Dawkins comes out as "culturally Christian"
Richard Dawkins comes out as "culturally Christian"
He saw something vaguely Muslim inside HIS imperial core and his monocle popped off so now he's on team (White) Jesus.
Militant atheism is when you prefer the religion of your birth nation.
insufferable dipshit is too much of a coward to be open about his white supremacy. i wish him a very
That's a lot of words to just say "racist".
Why are there Ramadan lights up there? Am I under Islamic control now?
Richard Dawkins confirmed to be on the same intellectual level as your small town, chud uncle that talks about how he saw 'Hamas sympathizers' hangliding near his property in Missouri
what's that? the guy that nigh invented modern anti-islam reactionary atheism is now deciding to be all thomas jefferson about the christofascism? crazy.
Is that April's fools post? Because it's true regardless, he's not an atheist but agnostic that just search for his brand of opium, it was clearly visible even in the "God Delusion".
The clip was uploaded Yesterday, and boy howdy does he say '"I'm a white supremacist" and "I'm a fascist" in it like 8 times in as many different ways.
For one he embraces white European identity as "superior" to anything else. Then he rejects the old guard of that identity "I would be happy if ever cathedral and parish hall was gone tomorrow". Then spends the rest of it trying to weasel word a justification of "White Christianity" as a progressive force with "women and homosexuals" just straight up ignoring the fact that this is absolutely not true and in fact the opposite of what they believe.
His double standard is pretty clear when he even acknowledges that Christianity and the Bible are not inherently good on the subject of women's rights and gay rights, but "specific Christians are better". Then immediately turns around and draws conclusions and Islam and all Muslims because he think the Quran is somehow worse.
If I remember correctly, this isn't the first time Dawkins has said this
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he said this before. I also think Hitchens said the same thing too
Is that April's fools post?
Ah shit I'm not sure but if I got punked then I knew it all along and was just testing you guys.
I mean Dawkins is shown in liberal media as paragon of atheism (together with Hitchens), so i would assume lib media would make an april's fools joke about him being christian. On the other hand, Norton is absolutely correct about him in his comment, so it might just be true because as i said Dawkins is not an atheist but agnostic and as a lib is fully expected to abandon his faux values to stand on his real ones that is white supremacy.
(a)gnosticism and (a)theism are separate axes, there are virtually zero atheists who claim certainty of knowledge. You've misunderstood something along the way here.
The islamophobia hiding behind the veil of "rational reddit atheism" was always there. The selfcongratulatory euphoria posting should have been a red flag to anyone decent.
Can he culturally come out as dead? That would be cool.
I'm sick of how these "atheist" types are only capable of hating one god. I thought y'all were mad at all gods. I thought thats why you decided to be atheist instead of anti Christian or anti whatever.
Exactly smh. Keep it consistent. All religion is idealist with no basis in material reality, full stop. The fact that they hard focus on Islam just shows their racism.
Reminds me that every post I see on c/Atheism or c/AtheismMemes is anti-X religion and never about Atheism.
I'm sick of how these "atheist" types are only capable of hating one god. I thought y'all were mad at all gods
christians and muslims are worshiping the same god though so it's even dumber for an atheist to care much one way or the other. it'd be like being an atheist with very strong opinions about which is the better of roman catholicism and protestantism. like damn, from where I'm sitting those may as well be the same thing.
(but also yes all religion is bad)
"If I had to choose between Islam and being a cracker, I'd choose being a cracker every single time."
Self-proclaimed 'cracker', @RichardDawkins , tells @RachelSJohnson he's 'extremely horrified' to hear that dark skinned people exist.
I'm atheist but culturally Christian, classically liberal
Richard Dawkins has been saying that he's a cultural Christian, or implying it, for decades now. I remember my highschool English teacher making fun of Dawkins for doing so.
Get crackers out of atheism, they were the ones spreading that Christian shit in the first place, fuck outta here
atheism has fallen, billions must 
New atheists are always trying to get ego gratification as they troll and are obnoxious. In the coming days to top him - I wonder what Sam Harris will do. I can't even imagine.
I was raised Christian, and if I had to choose between Christianity and Islam, I'd probably choose Islam at least 3 or 4 times out of 10.
We forget that classical scholarship, along with universities, plus most of modern medicine and technology and mathematics, emerged from the Muslim world. And despite the prevenient emphasis on submission, Muslims managed to not be one of the religions with a silly convoluted hierarchy, and also managed to be mostly cohesive and relatively non-parochial in their sects.
good luck purging the reactionary element from either, but yeah, God, Syria and Bashar! is better than every christian song.
Reactionary elements are not necessarily inherent to most religions, they emerge from self-seeking elements in human tendency and then sink their claws into religion to twist it into a tool to strengthen themselves.
No religion can be immune to this hijacking unless it is composed of explicitly egalitarian pillars.
HIS imperial core
This mutherfucker was born in Nairobi, he was born as an imperialist.
He also outed himself as a massive transphobe a while ago. I guess that fits in with the whole "culturally Christian" shit.
Probably has more to do with him being a biologist, a fair bit of them in his age range have dogshit views on trans stuff sadly
He rolled with Sam Harris and Cristopher Hitchens.
The “intellectual atheist of reason shtick” was nothing more than a glorification of the western white man as a scientifically enlightened individual.
The ideology of (western and white) Rationalism that is the substrate of neoliberalism.
Which is to say, he hates trans people because his scientifically enlightened self-perception is a thin wrapper of ideological justification around his racially, culturally, and gender driven sense of entitlement & superiority.
I wish nothing but the worst for these chauvinist nu atheist fascists
I support MABA
Make Atheism Based Again
It is cool to see actually evidence that white supremacy is more powerful than god
The fuck he is!
I'm calling on our Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Samaritan, Mandeaean, and other Abrahamic comrades to collectively enact whatever religious injunction you have that allows you to Minecraft this guy.
They can have him lol
The Apostle Paul: if Christ was not raised, this is meaningless and we are to be pitied among all of humanity
Richard Dawkins: I will use the affect of a thing I hate, whose followers I despise and believe to be imbeciles, and strip it of all meaning entirely, a sign with no signifier, to be racist
From a reply: "this is just the deutsche christen with lessons and carols and a gin problem"
He thinks humans were designed, of course he's a Christian.
Men were designed by Microsoft and women were designed by Apple
So I read his books for nothing?
I thought he was dead because I forget that he and Christopher Hitchens are not the same doodoohead.
I literally did the same just the other day
Lights horrify him, but not dropping white phosphorus on babies?
we're going to show some RESPECT for the man who invented memes 
Kill your idols, the memes are ours now
no shit
Mike flynn, refered to him as a prophet of calvinism.
The question is wether calvinism can be considered as christian, given that dawkings has wierd opinions on taxonomy, he probably thinks it is.
at least he knows it
I would take anything he says with a grain of salt. He puts far too much trust in horoscopes.
God, what little imagination these people have. I want a world where the American dominionist crowd hold no sway over me, and I mean no sway over me. Why would I vie to reject their religious framework just to have to resign to life spent their prisoner on a philosophical and cultural level?
unlimited genocide on firSSt world intellekkktuals
