No Christianity, no inquiry, no science. Dawkins's central thesis was not only wrong, it was backward. Christianity and science are not only NOT at war, Christianity is a necessary condition for science, logically, historically, and observably.
Richard Dawkins is discovering that the postchristian society he
helped bring about isn't necessarily to his liking:
The College Historical
Society (the Hist) has tonight rescinded its invitation to Richard Dawkins to
address the society next year.
Auditor of the Hist Bríd O’Donnell announced the cancellation in
a statement on her Instagram page, saying that she had been “unaware of Richard
Dawkins’ opinions on Islam and sexual assault until this evening”, adding that
the society “will not be moving ahead with his address as we value our members
comfort above all else”.
“The invitation to Richard Dawkins to speak at the society was
made by my predecessor and I followed up the invitation with limited knowledge
of Mr. Dawkins”, O’Donnell said. “I had read his Wikipedia page and researched
him briefly. Regretfully I didn’t look further into him before moving forward
with the invitation.”
“I want to thank everyone who pointed out this valuable
information to me”, O’Donnell added. “I truthfully hope we didn’t cause too
much discomfort and if so, I apologise and will rectify it.”
No Christianity, no
inquiry, no science. Dawkins's central thesis was not only wrong, it was
backward. Christianity and science are not only NOT at war, Christianity is a
necessary condition for science, logically, historically, and observably.
