an editorial by Richard Dawkins -- a segment:
No, please, do not mistake passion, which can change its mind, for fundamentalism, which never will. Passion for passion, an evangelical Christian and I may be evenly matched. But we are not equally fundamentalist. The true scientist, however passionately he may “believe”, in evolution for example, knows exactly what would change his mind: evidence! The fundamentalist knows that nothing will. [link]
There's some out there who still read my blog (hi!) who have pasted this label on Dawkins before. You may want to read his response. |
