I like what he saysjust find him arrogant. as arrogant as the views he opposes.
Selfish gene is without doubt one of the best books of the past 100 years. odd to think its written in the 70's. his work on phenotypes also remains outstanding.
still dont like him tho...

These fundamentalists do go on.And I don't particularly want to hear it from bible thumpers or evangelical Atheists. They are all entitled to their opinions (on /talk) and equally open to ridicule.
And you wonder why people find him irritating?

Err.. noHe writes books and stuff, and presents the odd television program
Seems standard fair to me; "evangelical Atheists." seems a slightly stupid term given i've never had that impression off his television work, and to be honest have never read a book of his given I actually couldn't give a fuck at the end f the day to be that bothered
Apparently they might be quite interesting, though I doubt if i'll get round to it; simply not what I can be arsed to spend my time doing so
Realistically, and in all honestly, have you ever encountered an evangelical Atheist in your High Street, outside the tube station, or at your door at ten in the morning on a fucking Sunday?
