    What do we expect? Dawkins thinks we’re all animals with an unusually large brain, and that biology explains everything. Is it surprising then to find that the basic animal function, and the basest animal instincts are the lodestone of his life?

    Note that he refers to “sex”, not “making love”. A Christian can make love to his wife; or to her husband. An atheist is simply engaging in the rewards of his evolutionary endowed fitness that provides him with the pleasure of copulation.

    Gotta love the human dignity enriching nature of atheism.
