Was Jesus A Real Person?

By Malgwyn | November 12, 2009

It was not what I expected to see on the Daily Mail Website - and especially on ‘Best of The Web’ section. While not a subject he engages in it is a doubt that Dawkins implies in TGD, ‘which he would, wouldn’t he!’ But in this era of faith and science conflict it is a [...]

Evolution To Be Taught To Primary Age In The UK

By Malgwyn | November 12, 2009

“In a letter to the British Humanist Association (BHA), which has co-ordinated the campaign for evolution on the curriculum, Johnson confirmed it would be in the final draft. Pupils will start with simple concepts of change, adaptation and natural selection illustrated by the evolution of fish to amphibians to mammals, for example.

CMI Review of Dawkins’ Greatest Show On Earth

By Malgwyn | November 10, 2009

“The Greatest Show on Earth.” Says CMI, “ This is the title of well-known antitheist Richard Dawkins’ new book. His reasoning for producing this latest effort is that he feels that his previous books did not quite mention enough “evidence” for evolution, and as he says “…it seemed like a good gap to close”.
“Dr Jonathan Sarfati [...]

Dawkins & New Atheists An Embarrassment to Atheists

By Malgwyn | November 9, 2009

The New Atheists  (they are the militant atheist evangelists like Richard Dawkins) are under attack in the Guardian. “Dawkins et al bring us into disrepute,” says the Guardian title. It reflects the divide among atheists. “There’s a schism alright, and I seem to find myself on the unfashionable side of it.” Says Michael Ruse, “There [...]

Dawkins Dodges Stephen Meyer on Design Debate

By Malgwyn | October 26, 2009

After my last post, Signature in the Cell and Darwin’s Bicentenary, I called at my local Waterstones but was surprised to be advised it would be easier and quicker to get Signature in the Cell through Amazon. Just surprised to be told that. Post free, and cheaper too it seems!
But I see that Dawkins might have [...]

“Signature in the Cell” & Darwin’s Bicentenary

By Malgwyn | October 15, 2009

Back to Richard Dawkins - he has a definite dislike of anything different from his view of origins.
It’s a few years since I read Darwin’s Black Box  - a fascinating read. I didn’t think anything could be more convincing on Intelligent Design - but seems Stephen Meyer  has stepped up the pressure in the Darwinian/Intelligent Design [...]

Matthew Parris OTT Over St Teresa’s Bones

By Malgwyn | September 23, 2009

Why was Matthew Parris so OTT over St Teresa’s bones? Why the call to atheists (or militant atheists) for all out war on religion? Having read Matthew Parris quite a bit over the years I know he is as well read in the Bible and Christian teaching as most, even if one does not agree [...]

Saint Teresa’s Bones & An Angry Matthew Parris

By Malgwyn | September 22, 2009

“For pity’s sake, closet atheists of Britain, come out! Don’t “respect” this credulous folly! Don’t let the madnesses of these faith minorities go by default! Stop our politicians kowtowing to nutters! Cease the embarrassed muttering about being “don’t knows” on religion, and shout it out. We do know! It isn’t true! All that is necessary [...]

Ida: The David Attenborough Hoax

By Malgwyn | September 15, 2009

I remember watching David Attenborough’s BBC1 “Uncovering Our Earliest Ancestor: The Link,” back in May. As one who has enjoyed Attenborough’s nature programmes I wondered then would it do his ‘street cred’ any good to get involved in the Origin’s debate this way? True, he is a convinced evolutionist and has no time for the opposing [...]

Atheism’s In Trouble

By Malgwyn | August 26, 2009

“Atheism is in trouble. You can tell because its most eloquent spokesmen are receiving icily critical reviews in the very mainstream press that Christians often dismiss for liberal bias.”
“You can also tell that atheism is in trouble because it is becoming increasingly intolerant.”
“The New Intolerance. Fear mongering among elite atheists is not a pretty site,” [...]
