New Atheists certainly appear to be frightened little people. They keep trying to pretend they’ve read what they clearly have not:
Also, this guy can’t even step outside his religiosity enough to see that in the world of reason, where Atheist and their ilk tend to reside, there is not an “Unholy Trinity of Dawkins, Harris, and Hitchens”. Man, Christians love their trinities. There are, however, the 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse,(you know, to reveal) with the 3 named “Unholies” and the philosopher Daniel C. Dennett. I can almost guess why he wasn’t included in the group though. Dawkins IS a bulldog (and a lovely, well mannered man who I had the pleasure of meeting once). Hitchens is ferocious in his indictment of religion (in a charming Dean Martin sort of way). Sam Harris is, well, dry and unassuming in his persona (he IS a SCIENTIST, you know), especially when he is making all those Brilliant points (backed up by said science) against Islam and Christianity (really Religion in general) and the people who surrender logic to take part in those religions that are on paths to domination and Human destruction. But… how do you attack Dan Dennett? It would be like attacking a kindly Grandfather. NO! It would be like attacking a smart, insightful, brilliant, Grandfather, who had the ability to explain the most mind-shattering truth’s and the most complex science in terms the simplest of us could understand. A man who is as kind , as he is Brilliant. Yeah… I could see not including in the attack one of the worlds foremost philosophers.
If I was an atheist, I would be deeply embarrassed at the lies that my fellow atheists are so willing to go out of their way to tell simply because they’re terrified of having their icons confronted and exposed. If this guy had read THE ENTIRE CHAPTER DEVOTED TO DANIEL DENNETT, then perhaps he might understand why Dennett wasn’t included. But perhaps not, anyone who can’t figure out the concept of reading a book before reviewing it can’t have too much going on upstairs.
And… doesn’t he mean the Four Horsemen of the Bukkakelypse?
