Dawkins doesn't claim to be 100% certain. In God Delusion he says something like 6 (or 6.9?) on a scale of 7. He thinks it is possible a creator...
We don't have a clue how (or even if) the universe started. We don't even know if the concept of cause and effect is applicable. I haven't really...

The government doesn't treat all human abilities as rights. It parses them using value judgments, restricting some and allowing others. Their...
Atheists are generally just intolerant of bad arguments for theism, not of theists. I'd be surprised if any atheist in this forum gives a fuck that...

You're still referring to desires, abilities etc., not objective rights. When the founding fathers cited unalienable rights they were making a...
Mags, given that we have naturally self-replicating molecules now which would you say is a simpler explanation? That a "first" one arose naturally...
You mean shouldn't, not couldn't. Unless you are ready to propose Platonic moral realism it's not that simple. Humans are generally speaking born...
Except you are referring to things that are instincts, feelings, abilities, and desires as unalienable rights, which doesn't make sense.
