Sounds like a case of atheists being unaware that they are refined Christians; unaware that they no longer need God to know Truth.

Interesting but still misguided.

dawkins can be an ass but he makes complete sense to me. he's not trying to examine specific theologies, but show that the whole basis for those theologies (god) can't be proven.

I don't believe in god myself, but the majority of religious people don't care whether the basis can be proven or not - that's the whole point of faith. It seems like a pointless argument to me.
