Although don't forget that it's a glass of white wine/fruit-based drink for the ladies. Pints are strictly for the fellas; those are the rules. And where whould we be if we didn't have any rules?

so explain to me what Richard Dawkins has done here that is wrong?

I always find it interesting when Sam Harris, Dan Dennet, Christopher Hitchens and good old Richard get the blame for something, when all they seem to suggest is there might be other options as opposed to blind faith- why does this upset so many people?

I don't blame Dawkins for anything.

He is a bit of a twaz, that is all, he has a bit of a God complex.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder springs to mind... and if I didn't have one I might find him more agreeable.
