Famous Atheist Richard Dawkins Says Religion “Should Be Offended At Every Opportunity”

Richard Dawkins author of the book The God Delusion has been very outspoken in his criticism of religion.

 

Recently in an article reported by The Independent, Dawkins says he is in favor of “offending people’s religion and it should be offended at every opportunity.”

 

Dawkins also thinks it is absurd that criticizing Islam is deemed as “racist”.

 

The Independent reports:

 

“The controversial atheist academic, 75, argued the public was too worried about being viewed as racist and claimed it is absurd to be accused of racism for criticising Islam.

 

Dawkins said this was the result of an “absurd double standard” in the Western world which means people are more anxious about attacking Islam than Christianity.

 

“People are terrified of being thought racist,” he told The Times. “There’s an awful confusion in many people’s minds. They think Islam is a race, which of course it isn’t”.”
