  1. "....Moreover, note that he (R.D) does, in fact, believe, even today as an adult, that frogs turned into princes. The only difference is that he believes that it took millions of years."

    That comment did bring forth a chuckle or two!

  3. It's nice to see Dawkins writing more on his own level.

    Dawkins has a mediocre Sunday School understanding of religion so this is perfect for him.

  4. I thought this was a site against atheism, not rationalism.

    Or Dawkins for that matter.

  5. I too am curious to see what Dawkins will write for kids. He does seem rather negative about fairy tales- I don't know of any studies, but I can't imagine that growing up with fairy tales is likely to make one anti-scientific: that's certainly not true in my case, anyway.

    Strictly speaking, the Anurans are not in our line of descent from the Amphibia, so frogs did not "turn into" princes. But your line was still pretty funny.
