I'm going to be reading it for my Science History book report. Any Atheist BS in it I should look for before I start?

Hey Mastermind,
For what it's worth, I haven't read The Blind Watchmaker but I have read two other Richard Dawkins books, The Devil's Chaplain and Unweaving the Rainbow. Richard Dawkins doesn't believe in "God" but I really liked these two books and like the way Dawkins writes, and after reading these two books I was more convinced than ever that there is a Creator ... I almost felt like, I was seeing science and the beauty of the world from Dawkins point of view, his scientific knowledge, his love of discovery, and it inspired so much awe in me that I thought ... there is an Intelligence to this Universe, this Creation. Who or what, where, why, I don't know ... but the first chapter of Unweaving the Rainbow regarding DNA was so beautiful I thought ... only You ...

Richard Dawkins certainly doesn't believe in any God. He's an arch evolutionist who thinks anyone who believes in God and/or disbelieves in evolution is ignorant, weak and stupid.

I saw the book, but the title was so stupid, I just guessed the rest was....I'm guessing it's about how evolution is the clockmaker, that has created us. I want to hear about some of his stupid arguments when you get to them....I couldn't read the book, I'd throw it out the window, after setting fire to it.

I could've taken that class at 22 and you would have been wrong.

You would be a complete idiot to fail that many times....I doubt you'd have a science book report in college....

Actually, I made a mistake. It's not a book report, it's a book review. And I AM in college. I'm taking Science History, so stuff like this is standard.

Hhhmm...I've never heard of book reviews being homework from all the ex-seniors I still talk to....but I'm still right
it's not a book report
So, is your professor an evolutionist, creationist, theistic evolutionist....?

It's not homework, it's worth a good chunk of my mark. And I think she's a theistic evolutionist but I'm not sure.
