Title: Richard Dawkins on O'reilly Factor
Post by: LoneMateria on October 10, 2009, 05:47:53 AM
Well in case anyone didn't know Richard Dawkins appeared on the O'Reilly Factor and got pissed and yelled at O'Reilly on his own show because he was being a moron.

Bill O'Reilly really needs debate practice. When he got cornered, he suddenly starts throwing around "fascism" as if it's a debate trump card. I wonder if he realizes how foolish he came off. I wonder if he cares.

I will all but assure he doesn't care. He knows that every Bible thumper watching his show (like my parents) are nodding there heads along with every one of his statements. Because science can't answer you have to present a creation alternative is so ridiculous it actually brings pain to my gut piece. Perhaps there is a place for creationism to be taught in school, just not in science class. Not ever.

So Dawkins yelled at O'Reilly the entire time? :P ) and i'm sure he figured that a rational debate wouldn't cause them to watch a right wing show.  So why not say what you really feel, the people who watch your show will love it and the people who don't won't he really didn't have anything to lose in being himself.

It is illogical to fill in the gaps between scientific facts with superstition.  O'Reilly can't see that so he yells all the louder to cover up his stupidity.  That strategy doesn't work.

Richard Dawkins looks a bit dour when he's on TV.  Be a Happy Atheist, Mr Dawkins....smile!   :D

I'm glad Dawkins didn't let O'Reilly get to him. I'm glad the Dawkins can hold his own, and I own The God Delusion, and I'll definitely buy The Greatest Show on Earth.

That would have just made O'Reilly rant and over talk even harder, he did the right thing, he made O'Reilly look stupid.
