"really mean it this time"?I thought they always meant it..:-)Well,Gods and idols come in all shapes and sizes and it seems to me Mr Hitchens has a few of his own as does,unsurprisingly,Mr Dawkins.If only this were their Twilight.............

I only wish that was true.. but what evidence do you have to support that belief? Fundamentalists have more than a sufficient foothold on the global stage.

that was a good interview by CBC. he actually wanted to know what his subject felt about issues... thats rare in the united states where most of the interviewers make it about themselves rather than their subject.

It's just a pure belief. I based this belief on the evolution of the human brain. We come from primitive thinking to enlighten one. Right now it feels that Religion are fighting to keep people within. But the evidence of new discoveries in our Universe, Human body, etc are showing us that we need to use all our human tools to survive in this harsh world.

why dont people like hitchens and dawkins become happy buddhists? Buddhism is an atheistic religion.

but still Buddhism is a collection of Mythologies that are not scientific, we can believe in the moral code of Dharmic religions without buying into their innane mythologies.

Hitchens is anti-theist. Theres no need for a philosophy or religion to live by. Reason and a care for humanity is all you need to live a moral and fulfilling life.

There was this book I read called 'The Day the Earth Changed', about how new informatin slowly becomes everyday accepted thought. This is a hard time for people who rely on religion for solace. If mankind were truly kind, none of us would suffer. We can only hope, we can try, and we can show them the way...It takes time...
