Richard Dawkins: The Root Of All Evil
Richard Dawkins observes the growing turn to ‘faith’ and fundamentalism nearly everywhere (e.g. not only in arabic countries, but in US & England …), turning against science although our times profit and rely on science more than any time before.
Some discussions are kind of unbelievable – that these people really exist and want to make all other people like them – or kill them – just because they believe in something without evidence.
I am more and more following this – why should anyone just believe anything without evidence? Or at least, without being allowed to ask for evidence at any time.
I very much like this:
“We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.”
The wikipedia article contains a transcript like summary and more good quotes.
