      Few have done more to mainstream anti-Muslim bigotry than this man.https://twitter.com/RichardDawkins/status/1110878434618683393 …

      “I hate cancer.” “Aha, so you hate cancer sufferers. Bigot!” The principal sufferers from Islam are Muslims. Especially women and homosexuals. Muslimophilia can inspire and justify Islamophobia.

      Did you read the Tweet above that one? Because I would think Brunei stoning and whipping gay people is the bigger offense here.

      Blaming all Muslims for the acts of a few is the very definition of bigotry.

      He doesn't blame "All Muslims" for this action. In that very Tweet he points out that Muslims are the victims of heinous policies made law by Islamic governments such as Brunei.

      He's saying that Islam, the religion all Muslims believe, is a "cancer." This is not long after an Islmaphobe killed 50 Muslims for nothing other than being Muslim. It's pure bigotry.

          Spoiler alert for the 2nd half of that Tweet: he is speaking up for the people soon to be stoned and whipped in Brunei. But good job on the policing of indelicate analogies.

          (nods) At the very least, it's a terrible comparison. (Islam is similar to cancer, huh?) But given what I keep hearing and seeing of Mr. Dawkins lately, it's one that he intended to make.😐

          He says the same thing of Christianity. He's a hard atheist who thinks religion is cancer. You know this, yet you continue to lie about what you already know he means. Why do you do this?

          Here he is claiming teaching religion to you children is "child abuse". Again, you know what he means. You know where he stands on religion.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0_A7Z6JKaY …
