Are Atheists Now Scared to Debate? - News Bloggers:One of my former professors now calls me Joe Louis, in reference to the boxer who knocked out so many "bums of the month" that he eventually had trouble finding worthy opponents.

Why won't they debate poor Dinesh? Maybe it has something to do with the fact he's an intellectual fraud with less integrity than "The Merrimac" I floated in the toilet bowl this morning. Dawkins is right on. Why debate an intellectual inferior? Who, by the way, brags about beating up bums (ya know, boxing lingo for crappy fighters)? Really. It's like saying "I'm proud of myself because I can outwit a 14 year old." Good for him, I guess.

Though it would be funny to see Dinesh go up against Sam Harris. Those two hacks can have each other.

yeah i don't know wtf is up with harris. when i read "end of faith" it was like... "ok, ok, ok, yeah, yeah.... and what??"

there was this weird underlying "spiritualism" that seemed to me like just another substitute for religion...

i think it's funny, too, that d'souza will hold up his harvard pedigree as an argument against him being retarded. on the one hand we have his compatriots telling us how corrupt, untrustworthy, and "liberal" all universities are, but when it suits him he'll use it as sound proof of something.

although, if you want to get nasty you could go after him with a "diversity requirement" argument...

but (sadly) i've been in universities long enough to realize that you can pretty much fake your way through any degree, if you got the requisite lack of ethics and morals. which his arguments certainly seem to bear out.

shit, i've seen people bullshit their way through a hard science. i can't imagine how easy it'd be to fake it through a soft one.

A friend lent me "End of Faith" and I think I got through a chapter (maybe it was just the introduction) before it became clear he was hedging the God thing. After that, I put it down and returned it. I didn't even bother to finish it. Later I found a funny article that picked him apart pretty good

BTW, I can name a few people with "Harvard pedigrees" who's intelligence quotient is, shall we say, stunted.
