Prominent atheist Richard Dawkins makes the case that anti science beliefs are being promulgated not by religious believers but instead irreligious institutions. |
He’s right. Any so-called “scientist” who thinks there are more than two sexes has no ground to criticize any claims advanced by religion. |
Most atheists are embarrassed when they hear about Dawkins. He is unnecessarily incendiary which is not conducive to communication and education. |
Dawkins forgets his biology.

Right wing rag misrepresents what Fausto-Sterling claimed.

Unsurprisingly, the Maori part is also a misrepresentation, complaining about Maori schools teaching their own past science and naturalism, and complaining about children being taught about mistakes and misuse of European science. |
+1 it’s ridiculous |
Like Niel DeGrasse tyson? |
You misrepresent transgenderism. Intentionally or ignorantly? |
Astrophysicist vs. biologist? I think I know who’s out of their swim lane here. |
From the article:
He’s right about this, it’s just semantics, a change in word definition. |
I DAF what he says. It’s not like he’s a spokesperson for atheists or anything. Just some random, old dude who happens to be a bigot. |
Not sure what makes Dawkins a bigot. Care to elaborate? |
We need Hitchens back |
Do you really believe that Dawkins, one of the world's greatest biologists, isn't aware of Klinefelter syndrome? ( As the article says, it is a genetic condition affecting males.) Dawkins tweeted today in support of JK Rowling's definition of a woman: "I believe a woman is a human being who belongs to the sex class that produces large gametes. It’s irrelevant whether or not her gametes have ever been fertilised, whether or not she’s carried a baby to term, irrelevant if she was born with a rare difference of sexual development that makes neither of the above possible, or if she’s aged beyond being able to produce viable eggs. She is a woman and just as much a woman as the others." |
