That's a marvelously sidestepping move , what happened to correcting your writer's deliberate older quote mining , framing Dawkin's scientific nihilism as : "there aren't any moral facts, arguing that morality is an illusion, all is base materialism " first needs be adressed ,

Perhaps you'd like to send this archaic gentleman the latest quote by him , for all that moralizing on supernatural ethical reality at least we could be a little more accurate regarding peoples stated POV's here on planet earth with all due respect to truth ?
