2. Richard Dawkins interview with Paula Zahn

Comment #22093 by Karen Owens on February 12, 2007 at 10:39 pm

I'm sorry Ellen Johnson wasted her precious little air time to confuse an issue by stating that she disagrees with Professor Dawkins on whether Christians misunderstand atheists. If time to think, she would have realized that she doesn't really disagree. They were each talking about 2 different types of Christians: leaders & followers. Ellen was talking about the many rabble-rousing Christian LEADERS who do UNDERSTAND atheists perfectly, but who deliberately mischaracterize atheists as evil, immoral, untrustworthy, aggressive etc. to their flock of Christian followers. Professor Dawkins was talking about those Christian FOLLOWERS who do MISUNDERSTAND atheists by buying into this terrible false caricature. With so many atheists in the closet, it's often the only representation of atheists that these Christians are exposed to.

The portion of text CNN aired from Professor Dawkins' interview was excellent. Unfortunately they edited out every smile but the last. He condensed several good points within minutes, as always. He continues to be, for my money, the best spokesman for Atheist / Humanist / evolution / & science vs. religion messages.

To clarify matters, I attend the same church & teach at the same Sunday School as Stephen Colbert. It must be true because it says so in my bio on Philosopedia.
