Let's see how Dawkins stacks up...

1) Given that Dawkins hasn't been able to explain why we are here, yup -- he passes this test of a religion.
2) I assume that Dawkings believes that death is the end.
3) Listening to Dawkins, I doubt that he believes that he has any guilt, nor has ever done anything the would require forgiveness.
4) The group is called Athiests
5) Dawkins has this in SPADES!!!!
6) I don't know if Dawkins knows what love is since it can not be seen, touched or proven in any physical fashion.
7) Obviously Dawkins is THE MAN when it comes to moral authority.
8) Dawkins has also demonstrated this repeatedl
9) Aww come on, is there any question that Dawkins feels the need to be right.



Yup, Dawkins is preaching a religion! It's the religion of Dawkins where's he's going to save the world.

(But by the way, he's not even big enough or gracious enough acknowledge a good person when he see one.)

I’m not quite sure what point you are trying to make except maybe that atheism is a religion.

That Dawkins has some of these needs is not new information. We all have them. Like I said, I have some myself. I know how I get them met. It’s just not via religion.

Which ones do you have, to what degree, and how do you get them met?

By the way, I found one definition of religion:

“Belief in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded as creator and governor of the universe.”

Atheism hardly qualifies.
