Atheists Diss Dawkins

Posted on November 22, 2006 in Morals & Ethics

Nice defense of the concept of religious and areligious tolerance here.

Fundamentalists reject “tolerance” because they see it as the doorway to evil, one which gives errant visions equal time with God’s unchanging truth. (“That word ‘broad-minded,'” sang the Louvin Brothers, “is spelled S-I-N.”) The Evangelical Atheists explicitly rejecttolerance, too. They argue that those who preach tolerance are creating a friendly climate for extremism. They offer no documentation to support their argument, only the rhetoric of vituperation.
