Maybe he's one of those Discordian pricks you hear about.
The Hell Law says that Hell is reserved exclusively for them that
believe in it. Further, the lowest Rung in Hell is reserved for them that
believe in it on the supposition that they'll go there if they don't.

Hi everyone! I'm another migrant from the RDF website. Some of you might remember me. I had over a thousand posts there, but luckily, I never posted anything of value. :biggrin:

Yip thats it, this lead to a further 100 something pages of his counter-arguments to our rebuttals of "Sir my Space Shuttle analogy logically and reasonable proves the existence of an intelligent designer"

I wonder if he drowned in the sinking or if he made it to another boat?

What has Dawkins got to do with RDFRS' goals, though? Unless a goal of the foundation is indeed to promote the Richard Dawkins persona/brand, as well as to promote pure reason and science.

I actually thought of this myself. They said they wanted threads focussing more on reason and science. If threads start asking about Richard Dawkins the personal character, I will feel compelled to report them.
Actually, one of my daily chores was to locate the Dawkins fluff threads and ship them to OT. We tried to keep the Dawkins threads about the ideas and the mission rather than "what's Richard's favourite chocolate bar?"

Those were the days. You could leave a pie out and it wouldn't rain.
But if it were about the ideas and the mission then it wouldn't be 'discussions relating to Richard Dawkins', as such, would it? Unless Richard Dawkins is the idea and the mission.
Then they for sudden joy did weep,
And I for sorrow sung,
That such a king should play bo-peep,
And go the fools among.
Prithee, nuncle, keep a schoolmaster that can teach
thy fool to lie: I would fain learn to lie.
