# Yes, but he's so annoyingly worthy and righteous that it seems only fair to point out to him that it's ALL a matter of belief
Militant/evangelical atheists piss me off even more than the religious. At least most - not all, I grant you - religionists are prepared to accept there are other belief systems, and generally just invite you to theirs, instead of slagging the others off*


*Right-wingers not included - but they're all arseholes, religious or no.

With perhaps a nod to Victor Strenger who came up with the masterful quote "Science flies you to the moon. Religion flies you into buildings."

# Mainstream science isnt a belief system in the religious sense.
Its 'belief' is based on observable and measurable evidence. Religious belief is generally based on superstition. The reason Dawkins appears righteous is because he's right.

# You are correct. It is all a matter of belief
And this is why it is perfectly fine for me to believe that black people are the reason the weather is terrible, it is my moral obligation to burn them, and that my breakfast toast is the re-incarnation of Jesus.

Oh, wait, you mean we should have _standards_? For our beliefs? STANDARDS? But that's... exactly the flipping point, idiot.
