  5.  @raffam3559  I'm afraid I don't see it that way. I have the utmost respect for someone open minded enough to have developed and defined ground breaking logic. He's never claimed to be a seer, and he's not the only one to be confounded by the emergence of unreason

  17. Why should he have to ?

  18. Dawkins is a free thinker. It's almost amusing how some people don't like that

  19.  @wayneorchard5570  Quite. It matters to me and it must matter to him. If his logic was inconsistent, it would carry no weight

  20. Reason doesn't expect to be trumped by unreason

  21. Legislation exists for a reason. It just needs repurposing in favour of the indigenous majority

  22. Probably. Marxists will go along with anything to upset the apple cart. (cf. The Iranian revolution)

  25.  @EE12CSVT  Thanks. I've certainly witnessed his reticence on the subject

  28. Cromwell reinstated the monarchy for a reason

  29.  @darkrazer1000  Two answers to that. One: it gives you something to whinge about. Two: YouTube, : Oliver Cromwell's Speech Dissolving the Rump Parliament, 1653

  30. He's encountered intolerance, and he, like us, knows he prefers the alternative

  31. Without the likes of Dawkins, you'd still be swinging around in the trees

  32.  @raffam3559  I don't think he was unreasonable. I see his contribution a bit like that of Life of Brian.Or picking up the baton from Darwin, questioning the dogma of religion, rather than the (post enlightenment) theism itself. And, either way, it's a bit of a stretch to suggest that he ushered in the unreasonable ones. He's pursued logic, not geopolitics

  33.  @raffam3559  I might add, I'm largely au fait with your initial comment (that's my thumbs up (!)), though not convinced by your final sentence

  34. ​ @alexboitz8540  It's more worrying when some naive klutz tries to defend Orwellian legislation

  35. ​ @ribbonsofnight  He'd rather keep his head on his shoulders

  36. It's like blaming reason for insanity
