Science dammit! If Dawkins is bottling it then my plan to totally erase Christianity from history in the manner of Stalin has recieved a major setback.

I shall retire to my volcano lair to ponder this.

Maybe the soubriquet of "Professor for the Public Misunderstanding of Religion" finally reached his ears.

All credit to him for acknowledging his own culture, though. that's the best news I've had all week.

I'm reminded of when I was telling jinty about when my brother was working in a very Catholic part of Germany, and he had to put his religion on his work permit. His boss asked him "Religion?" -- "Keine." -- "Keine Religion??" -- "Keine." -- "Also, sagen wir 'Kirche von England'."

So. Christmas is alright, so long as it has nothing to do with religion. Actually, this kind of pisses me off...

Yup. Did that when filling in the forms to tour the monasteries of Mount Athos; not a place where atheism goes down very well.
