- Author and broadcaster Mehdi Hasan reacts to comments made by Richard Dawkins.
The famous atheist had said that Christianity is a 'fundamentally decent religion in the way Islam is not', after Ramadan lights were hung in central London during Easter.
Mehdi criticised Richard's use of 'sweeping statements' and called his comments Islamophobic.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” - Malcolm X
What if "the oppressed" would be absolutely happy to oppress you too if they were given the chance? When a religion encourages slavery and sxx slavery amongst other things, people should be perfectly entitled to express their hatred for people who subscribe to that ideology whether they are supposedly "oppressed" or not.

He is a renowned scientist who sees evolution as fact and belief in creation as fairy tales. Most intellectuals believe that as well

You know, when you have to use ad hominems against your detractor, it's because you can't defend your position intellectually, mainly because your position can't stand up to scrutiny. Intelligent people see that immediately

If you read the Quran in your native language, you will be astonished! This book is different from the books of Jews and Christians.
It is recommended to recite the Quran in Arabic, as it is the original language of the revelation. However, it is also beneficial to study its interpretation (tafsir) in a language you understand best. For instance, as a fluent German speaker and proficient in Arabic and English, you may find it more comprehensive to read the Quran in Arabic and delve into its interpretation in your preferred language. Personally, I have found translations into German and English somewhat lacking in conveying the full depth and richness of the Quranic text.
What you mean by that?
The books of Jews and Christians does not license you to B-head anyone who doesnt follow or question your religion.
@@KomalD-cb2buEvidently you haven’t read the Quran either

I may be an atheist but I came by that honestly. I was raised Catholic. Today I still believe that we should leave people to their faiths. I have no need for it but others may do and that’s not my business. As far as I’ve always understood it, faith is meant to be a private practice and it’s perfectly ordinary for people to practice it. The problem is when zealots like white Christian Nationalists as in the states, start hating on already marginalized groups. That’s when I start judging this filth. See? It’s already started.
What makes you want to raise the issue of Christian’s in a foreign country, when the discussion was clearly about the UK?
@@yingtonReligious zealotry is a worldwide plague, not exclusively a UK problem.
So it’s ok to allow people to believe in Satan, demons, and give all their money to bloated corrupt religious conmen? How about we teach people to value evidence rather than father and BS pipe dreams like heaven or paradise or the celestial kingdom.
@@yington what an idiotic deflection. They're talking abuot religion. Both religions span the entire globe. They literally spoke about America and Africa.
Dawkins likes some of the aesthetics of a Christian-influenced-English-culture. That’s not the same as “he likes Christianity”. He manifestly does not.
The response to his comments are kind of strange. Dawkins has maintained his cultural Christianity is the late 00’s at least.
He wouldn’t disagree with you buddy.
@@MelGibsonFan Most of the comments in response to this video are from the stereotypical thicko LBC viewers to be fair, so it's no wonder that most of them are too slack to understand what Dawkins was actually saying in the course of his interview. It's a sad state of affairs but it is what it is.

Agnostic here, mehdi is right
Disagree. Mehdi is knowingly misrepresenting Dawkins because, despite normally being a very rational guy, when his religion comes into question, he becomes extremely irrational.
To me he seems very upset about the time Dawkins called him out about the fact that he believes that Mohammed literally went to heaven on a winged horse... this tells us exactly how irrational Medhi can be.
Yep, medhi got his knickers in a twist from past ownership. And now playing the victim. Again. Yawn.
Mehdi is claiming RD is islamphbic simply because he criticised Islamic culture. Dont you think that's a bit excessive?
No he is not.
@@dannylad1600 He criticized Islamic Culture, while saying he is 'culturally christian', how is that not discrimination?
I remember Hasan in a debate with Dawkins when he, Hasan, said he believes his Prophet (PBUH) flew up to Heaven on a winged horse.
So its okay and more based and logical for the monkey (Dawky boy according to his ancestory believe) who believes a thing can come from nothing (the complicated finely tuned world came on its own from nothingness)
@@sammar5874sounds more likely than a flying horse.
Please recreate for me the moment where an ape turns into a homosapien. According to the scientific method all things should be fully observable no? Or any species changing into a completely different one…Mythology exists in your culture too.

Dawkins is desperate to defend the world he grew up in. A middle class, white, Christian, English, heterosexual, cisgender, male dominated world. As he's grown older he's become increasingly afraid of change.
Sad to see tbh. Dawkins was always a hero of mine. Guess developing indefensible right wing views happens to everyone eventually.

@@imnotgoodwithnamesbruh6018 We Europeans have spent so much energy trying not to be Xenophobic, that we have taken our attention away from the fact that others are still exactly that and they have come to live with us.
The churches are empty because less and less people believe in fairytales. It's not Dawkin's fault. People are just starting to think for themselves.

Mehdi Hassan is a joke! In one of his debates with Dawkins he claimed he believed that the story about a winged horse was literally true!! Unless he has revised his opinion since that, I would venture there is little point arguing with someone who clearly has such scant regard for evidence or scientific reasoning.
This, and I bet if it was revealed that a senior journalist in America for example turned out to believe in miracles from the Bible, he would get at least as much criticism as Mehdi if not moreso. In fact much moreso because that person would find it hard to argue that his critics' were being 'Christianophobic'.

There is a difference between disliking something and bigotry.
It is weird for Dawkins to lament people not showing up to church. I’m also an atheist, and while I’ll go to churches if invited for some event friends are having (baptism, marriage, funeral, etc.), it’s a bit awkward sitting there while people regularly pray and I’m just looking around the room. I fully agree with people choosing not to go regularly, I’m not sure why Dawkins would find it problematic. If you don’t believe, it’s just sitting in a room. Have people over for lunch if you want community.
People are tolerated when they aren’t intolerant . Freedoms are earned and based on sacrifice and not up for debate . This is a secular society and it has no room on that basis for intolerance from anyone or any religion . The Muslim , Jewish , Hindu , Christian and non religious communities all have a responsibility to not expect preference or special treatment .
Dawkins did clarify the difference between Christians in the US and christians in the UK and made the point that the US has fundamentalists.
Does that make it right to attack another religion, imagine if a Muslim scholar did the same in an interview attacking Christian’s.
