Richard Dawkins: A Lesson in Diatribe
It's been 3 months since my last blog, and Richard Dawkins is still the prevailing specimen of, Cranium Dicktoraus. I was
at a book store, in the science section and found some most interesting books. I'll blog about these later. I seen Richard's
there. I should have took advantage of the book stors's hospitality and enjoyed my java in one of their comfy chairs
and browsed over the book like you do when scouting for a new interesting read. But no comfy chairs were available,
full house.
So I enjoyed Joe's Java, along with the effects of some pain meds, and stood there and gave it the
thumb through. You know, the scan. Everyone has their own style.
I'll be honest with you. I think Richard Dawkins
is trying to ride the coat tails of having a last name that puts his in the "Darwin" section of the "science"
section. What... d a r, d a w. Dick "Head".
Seriously, there was a fair span of interest
represented within the alphabetized section. I bought a few books, one titled, "How to Build a Time Machine"
by Paul Davies. A fascinating read, based on scientific facts, and theories generally agreed upon by the scientific
community, even if it be labeled by scientific peers as observed "phenomenon" that repeatedly has the same
results... then there was Richard Dawkins' bullshit.
No, I didn't buy his book. I found to many others that when
I gave the "thumb through", captured the imagination's debit card needs. But I will acquire a copy of his book,
as soon as I get over it's comedic value in the "science section".
