Richard Dawkins is getting canceled again
Apparently, when Richard Dawkins said he was an atheist, some people didn’t realize that he rejected Islam along with Christianity. The stark reality is that the post-Christian student does not want to win a debate but rather to cancel it.
Myths about Christianity and Science – Part II with Mike Keas
There are so many awkward questions that the propaganda keeps people from asking.
How Christianity aided modern science
The troubling part is that many sources won’t talk about this stuff because it is “religious” but they don’t mind parroting some flapdoodle from a village atheist, of whom it might be said that to call him merely ill-informed would be to shower him with unearned praise.
