I have just finished watching your show "Sex, Death and the Meaning of Life" in which you mention that you are frequently asked the questions: "Why do you get up in the morning? How is there meaning to your life if you don't believe in God?"
It occurred to me that an answer to these questions...
If there was every any doubt in my mind as to on which side of the god debate I should sit, it was firmly settled after reading the various letters addressed to you here on this website. The rambling, abusive, threatening, illogical and (I hesitate to put 'crazed') absurdities of those who...
I am reading your book "The God Delusion" with much interest. Despite having been an atheist since about 11 years of age this is the first book I have read on the subject.
It puzzles me that any sane, rational, person can still believe in a mythical being such as God, no matter what name is...
Dear Mr. Dawkings,
I am a fan, but wishing to support your cause I could not but put forward this.... I see this question asked in youtube debates many times "If evolution is true why can't we see it happening, and new species arising?" and both you and late Mr. Hitchens seem to always...
Since atheism is a belief system, I assume one can be an atheist, whether or not Gods actually exist, just as one can be a believer in Gods, without the need for evidence.
Peaceful co-existence is possible, with or without discussion between these polarised positions, provided that respect,...
There was a story by Paulo Coelho about a corrupt society which couldnt be changed. And a new young king did the best he could for four years but didnt actually change anything. He then was banished along with his family. And his family was very surprised to find a new city 3 days away. It turned...
I am a recent Atheist of about 6 months, and as I continue down this road there is a constant bug festering within me. I cannot shake it. I study music composition and conducting, but the more and more that I read the more I want to start this college thing all over. I have been in my...
I was reading through some of the letters which you have received and was especially intrigued by the 'ugly' letters written mostly by 'Christian' people. To think that they are representatives of their faith/god.
My husband and I have been atheists for more than 2 years now, as well as our...
I have read most of your books and followed many of your confrontations with the pious. I was particularly impressed on seeing you on Al Jazeera last month. That was incredibly brave; of you and Al Jazeera. (I suspect there are a few closet atheists within Al Jazeera. I do not envy them.)...
Tonight I had a wonderful evening with friends and new acquaintances, which was marred by the last 30 minutes or so. Ultimately it ended up in me being ejected from the house party I attended. Here's why.
We began discussing religion and I made the great crime of talking about Islam and its...
With our massive brain power you'd think, wouldn't you, that humans might have come up with a way of reaching fundamental truths, inner peace and communal harmony which does not involve squabbling, condemnation of others and ritualistic self-loathing. But it seems as a species we have harnessed...
Dear Prof Dawkins.
How are you professor? I'm 18-year-old boy named Koh Jung-woo in Korea. I'm not so good at English so I ask to be excused for you that maybe you will uncomfortable to read this letter. I heard about both doctrine of creation and evolutionary theory many times, so I make time...
