This is a question Ignorance

I once was in a programming class where the task was "build a calculator". A student did one with buttons 1, 2, 3 all the way up to about 25 and then ran out of space on the screen. We've asked this before but liked it so much we're asking again: What's the best example of ignorance you've encountered?

Sheer, willful ignorance on a quite staggering scale...

You're just trying to start a load of infighting between the Dawkins fanboys and the religious nutters.
I'll have no part of this blatant trolling.

No part of the trolling?
That will be a treat, maybe we will get some intelligent trolling for once.

You're nowhere near the standards of Doctor Shambollocks when it comes to '/talk people are all horrid' internet weirdery.
I mean, look at that username for starters.

Dawkins has a reputation for becoming unreasonably irate at the slightest provocation
But in this clip at least, he shows remarkable restraint - bearing in mind he's arguing with a total moron. I think in his place I'd have stormed angrily and impotently out of that interview halfway through.

Couldn't watch past her condescending, eye-crinkling "I'm a better person than you" smirk - reminded me too much of my two-faced, nasty bitch of a mother. Wanted to reach into the screen and slap that look off her smug little face. I shall try again later.

I'm the first to admit that I don't appreciate
the way a lot of extremist Dawkins-types get all angry and as bad as the God-botherers, but I'm with you.

I couldn't bear to watch more than a few seconds of it because of her ever-so-slightly-smug simpering tone.

Dawkins really is a cock, isn't he?
Not watching the video, as I doubt it'll do anything to validate my opinions.

He is indeed
Im an atheist but having him as the de facto mouthpiece for my stance is almost enough for me to consider shifting camps.

Life's much easier as an Agnostic.
Puts some distance between me an the Humanists/Brights/militant athiests/etc., and allows me to get on with my life without worrying about such things (unless Dawkins gets mentioned on here, in which case my reaction is entirely Pavlovian!).

*awaits bizarre rant about Dawkins from Manley*

He's alright I suppose.

The fact that it's Dawkins
arguing evolution over creationism is largely irrelevant. She'd argue black was white and deny all evidence to the contrary if she thought it would help her agenda.

That's politics for you.
