        What a marvellous logical destruction of the agnostic position. (n/m) (General Chat) - Johnny Comecardiff, Aug 26, 11:37:53
        
        Not as marvellous as Dicky Dawkins does it in The God Delusion (General Chat) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Aug 26, 11:51:27
        
        Ah, the imposition of your views onto those of other people. (General Chat) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Aug 26, 12:01:18

        Yes - as with the atheist/Christian argument, there are two sides to that coin (General Chat) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Aug 26, 12:24:32
        
        I would consider myself a devout atheist. Dawkins is a fundemental atheist. (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Aug 26, 12:26:38
        
        Agreed. (General Chat) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Aug 26, 12:30:43
        
        But is it not important (General Chat) - The Judge, Aug 26, 12:50:20
        
        That's more about the separation of faith from science and education though (General Chat) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Aug 26, 12:59:40

        Ed Hussain's book, The Islamist, provides a decent insight on this subject. (n/m) (General Chat) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Aug 26, 13:34:49
        
        Fair enough (General Chat) - The Judge, Aug 26, 13:05:02
        
        Yes, there's a place for a Dawkins, and also for a Moore. But I wonder if there is a need (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Aug 26, 12:55:03
        
        There's a need for good Pope (General Chat) - The Judge, Aug 26, 12:58:50
        
        I disagree. There is no need for Catholicism, so no need for a pope. (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Aug 26, 13:01:42
