Dawkins has long admitted his mistake from what I heard, he's still an Atheist but he's apparently more in line with me that for larger society you need a Christian morality framework otherwise you end up with present day problems.
More like "short" admitted his mistake lol, as he made those comments recently. Knowing his history of commentary and publication, that was mindboggling. He advocated for the extermination of religion as humanity's enemy and partnered with people who called it child abuse. Now he sounds like a chastened teenager.
He's starting to see how a society built upon Christianity has been falling apart without Christianity involved. While I hope he has a literal come to Jesus moment, I think he may want the benefits of Christianity without the core fundamental requirements.
To be a different religion than Christianity: People have built societies on that and pretty decent ones too. To be irreligious: I'm not sure anyone has. It's disordered for people to live without religion. People need that. I would have a hard time separating the downtick in Christianity from the downtick in religion in general.
I USED to be on that side of the fence till I started reading philosophers especially Nietzche and observing people more.
Then I realised 'yeah, most of you motherfuckers would immediately purge one another if you had no higher authority or bonds of any kind with each other' as the left's 'bonds' are weaker soggy toilet paper.
Yeah that was a mistake, I at least realised that when I was around 16-17 when I finally got my hormones under control, his age had not that much of an excuse.
When you say religious people are dumb and deluded, you attack the smartest people in the world. It's presumptuous to think you know better. I imagine that's why it fades with age.
The problem with admitting mistakes is that its meaningless ego-saving unless you repent proper and make right what you made wrong.
Considering the widespread destruction that Dawkins set the foundation for, he has come nowhere close to being humble enough to give a single shit about him "admitting his mistake."
He deserves to be strung up just as much now as he did then, and he shows no signs of being willing to even start to change that fact.
Great energy, but he's at least realised he's wrong so retribution isn't a priority.
We got degenerates running around to maim, mutilate and sexually abuse kids, 3rd worlders turning the West into the same kind of shitstains they came from and mercenaries under the guise of police constantly targeting those that just highlight the issues and who is causing them.
Priority needs to be on who is currently doing damage, not who used to do damage.
And setting the precedent that you can just spout the most wildly damaging shit and then just go "whoopsy" after and drop down to "no longer a priority problem" is how we have people across the world just setting fire to our societies and then falling off the map without a care because they know they'll never face real consequence.
Setting the stage of knowing that you will be held to account, no matter the statue of limitations, will keep people from throwing their weight to begin with and help stem the tide going forward.
Either way, I don't buy him "realizing he was wrong" in the slightest. Its purely self interest of having to suffer the consequence of his actions, so he is running to the forgiving group to protect him. If the mudslimes were quelled he would be right back to trying to throw Christianity to the lions by the next day.
Science failed to solve the problem that science caused. Trust science. I fcking love science!!!!
This may be the beginning of the end for the Collins-Fauci-Dawkins-Mann era where scientists became our modern priests.
And Congress can finally hold Fauci in contempt. A sternly worded letter is coming soon. I can feel it.

Everyone wants the benefits of living healthy without actually having to live healthy.

Leftists are stuck in the phase of development that rebellious children go through. They are defective as human beings.
Voltaire explained all this to us ages ago. The mistake was midwits putting Dawkins on a pedestal in the first place.
