Re: Sin, you unabashed pagan!!!
I denounce all superstition ie ghosts, talking with the dead, lucky numbers, bad luck, magic, astrology, spiritualism, parapsychology etc. no matter from where the source.
I doubt that you have the courage to denounce Alfred Russel Wallace, co-discoverer of natural selection. Wallace has carefully documented, using the scientific method, the existence of a spirit world. His papers on this subject are remarkable to say the least and extremely convincing. Since I am a supernaturalist I already know that a spirit world exists. Wallace was not delusional or tricked in any way since he spent many years investigating paranormal activity. Since, like I said, he co-discovered natural selection, the dismissal of Wallace's documentation of a spirit world by fellow evolutionists goes to show that they are not interested in evidence that harms the Atheist worldview.

To the extent that atheism is the natural conclusion of science - and it is....
Then Christian evolutionists are fools....right CF?
....because the facile idea that the "supernatural is beyond the reach of science" is clearly false - I don't see why promoting it is inconsistent with being a scientist.
Are you saying the supernatural is within the reach of science?
But getting back to Dawkins: I find it almost unbelievable that he sings Christmas carols? Dawkins is the most visible hater of Christ in the Western world. Apparently he does so without any feeling for Christ (good or bad)? I also commend him for his honest and objective admission that England has a rich Christian history. But IIRC, he says in "God Delusion" that American Founding Father's were Atheists? Well, Dawkins is not a historian, in any case.

Re: time for my christmas ban!
Ray you fruit, he never documented anything - you need to get back to the doctor and ask,nay, beg him to up your meds.
I've read them on the Internet. I repeat: Wallace's papers arguing for the existence of a spirit world are remarkable and extremely convincing. In fact, on one occaison he held a seance in his own house as to prevent any fraud. Fresh flowers materialized ex nihilo. He kept them for several weeks if I remember correctly.
Your reaction is ignorance and classic shooting the messenger. Your reaction also reveals a closed mind - spiritually dead - bristling over the slightest indication that the Atheist worldview is just plain wrong.
