Does religion logically lead to violence?
Posted by Darren under Atheism , Epistemology , Faith , Philosophy , SkepticsI saw an interesting post today on Thinking Christian commenting on one of Richard Dawkins' opinions expressed in the recent Dawkins / Lennox debate (and also in Dawkins' book The God Delusion).
Read it here: Religion Leads Logically To Violence, But Atheism Doesn't–Richard Dawkins
I agree with Tom Gilson's opinion on this issue, and this is an issue that is raised often (and will continue to be raised given the fact that it is often repeated by the new atheists) so it's worth thinking about. I haven't yet watched the debate but it should be interesting.

Thank you for the link, Darren! Did you know, by the way, that I'm also a CCC staff member, here in the U.S.?

Hi Tom! Yes, I've read your posts recently regarding the conference(s) you were on (I was at the Canadian staff conference at/around the same time the US conference was going on) and your work with GAIN whom is also partnered with CCCC. Great to hear from fellow CCers, and please continue to update your blog, I visit daily
