Comments on: “Richard Dawkins is not pleased with God” (Well, duh) http://www.whyfaith.com/2007/03/21/richard-dawkins-is-not-pleased-with-god-well-duh/ Please read, ponder & comment Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:39:58 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Darren http://www.whyfaith.com/2007/03/21/richard-dawkins-is-not-pleased-with-god-well-duh/comment-page-1/#comment-1360 Darren Fri, 23 Mar 2007 02:01:05 +0000 http://www.whyfaith.com/2007/03/21/richard-dawkins-is-not-pleased-with-god-well-duh/#comment-1360 I agree Jared, he writes with an accessible style. The first time I read one of his articles, I was quite surprised, since the ability to not just know, but to be able to communicate what you know is rather rare for a philosopher. I have a couple of his less accessible books on my "to read" list after I graduate this summer, I'll try "God, Freedom, and Evil" first, if I can handle that "Warranted Christian Belief" will be next. (528 pages!) (BTW, good to see you're still reading Jared! When will I have the pleasure of reading a blog of your own? :) ) I agree Jared, he writes with an accessible style.

His subtle, dry sense of humor is a nice complement to the profound ideas he develops and expresses. You don't feel like he's some aloof, self-important intellectual up on some tall pedistal; he seems as down-to-earth and accessible as they come. Yet the intellectual content is right up there in the top-drawer with the rest of the high-profile philosophers of the 20th/21st century. I love Plantinga’s written and spoken style!
