Ha! Now that's funny. Is there anything more pathetic and contradictory than those in the professional atheist industry? They cannot even give credit to the Christians who built the successful Western democracies which gave them the right to vent their spleen. Like the spoilt children of a millionaire they think they personally earned their ease. Of course, they're teenagers, with a lifetime of maturing ahead. A 67-year old man like Dawkins can't be excused.

Yes, and if it was up to the goodly Christians, we'd be stoning women that showed their midriffs. YES, I'm comparing you to the eeeeevil Muslims, and don't bother with the false outrage. I've heard some Christians say things that'd make the most hardcore Al Quaeda member blush.
Ok.
Thank you, people who built Western democracy, who were frankly of many different spiritual / religious beliefs, including Christianity.
And Judaism. Deism, Agnosticism, Atheism, and the other guys.
Thanks.

I'm getting paid for this? My Thor am I overdue in everything. Overtime, time and a half, holiday pay, ect...
Professional atheist industry? That's a new one. So are we hocking non-belief as a sales pitch now? How does that work? And christins don't hold a monopoly on western civilization. The pagan Romans and Greeks had much more to do with it. And the only christian who had a big impact on western society would have to be Augustine of Hippo, who was a CATHOLIC. Since I take it you're probably protestant, then you should be offended. Of course, protestants pretend catholicism is ok if it suits their needs. So this is a major fail.
all my life, teachers have been giving credit to the GREEKS for democracy.
From listening to all the garbage spewed forth by fundies, youd think they were the inventors of DICTATORSHIPS, what with all this wanting to kill aetheists, wanting to make it law that we are all christians, telling us what to do with our lives, our families, our bodies...
Are there classes I can take? You, know, 'Atheism 101', 'Advanced Athiesm 403', etc. Can I get a degree in this?
I kind like this idea...

What's the professional atheist industry, exactly?
Oh, and Treaty of Tripoli, bitch. And the most well known founders were either Deist (they believed in a God that rarely, if ever, intervened) or Unitarian (they reject the divinity of Jesus and believe God is just a single being instead of three in one).
The democracies you speak of: You think they were born from theocracies?
We broke away from the church, locked it away from controlling the populace, then and only then did democracy arise.
Dawkins knew more about European or even world history than you when he was in his twenties. Read some of his books or watch some of his debates or documenteries, many of his points are evidenced by historical context.
You don't have even a small understanding of the Western worlds history and it's road to democracy by pretending it happened by the grace of church.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
