1. The Grinch Delusion: An Atheist Can Believe in Christmas

I agre 100%, Xmas was a part of my life growing up, and it still is and will be until I die. I do not have to believe in a great story about some guy being born of a virgin to enjoy Xmas. I enjoy my family (even though they are all christians) and I enjoy the food, drink, and presents. Xmas is not about a man being born to a virgin, it is about enjoying time off from school, work, and the monotony of every day life. I look forward to the holiday season every year, because of the good times that I know I will have with my family. I do know that every year my family will speak of this great story of 'christ,' but it does not mean that I cannot enjoy the social, and cultural aspects that this holiday season brings.
MERRY XMAS!!!

Again,
Many 'props' to Professor Dawkins, I don't think, I know, that I could not be so 'nice' to the inquries of this 'debate.' I am incredibly jealous of his ability to remain calm and nice during these Q&A sessions that really do not, and have not even read or tried to understand his book. I would not be able to remain calm. His ability to stay 'cool' in these debates astound me. Kudos Professor!!

Jared,

I can't agree more, "I should think you could at least familiarize yourself with the concepts involved!" this Rod Liddle has no idea what evolution is, nor what science is. Science inspires awe and wonder to figure out what is unknown. God, on the other had inspires awe and wonder in what is unknown!!
