God delusion

A series of articles, by Frank Wilson, appeared in the Phila. Inquirer that reviewed the books of three science writers, Richard Dawkins, Francis Collins and Owen Gingerich.
I found this writer to be somewhat hostile to Dawkins and extremely apologetic towards Collins.
Read in order that they are posted, and I would be interested in any comments.

'Somewhat hostile'.. you're

'Somewhat hostile'.. you're being too generous. The reviewers stance drips from them like so much blue sweat from a Gatorade commercial. I wonder how many brownie points they got from their church for these pieces?

About Frank Wilson

A Philadelphia native, he is a graduate of Father Judge High School (A Catholic High School) and St. Joseph's University (A Jesuit school).

Oooh.. he's a Philly native. I so want to hear him interviewed by the Squad Evil

"Imperious, choleric, irascible, extreme in everything, with a dissolute imagination the like of which has never been seen, atheistic to the point of fanaticism, there you have me in a nutshell.... Kill me again or take me as I am, for I shall not change.

I was thinking the same thing but can't bring myself to read his material, as I've been warned by Razor several times.
