I think that we have an innate spirituality - emotional awareness in still moments - call it what you will, which makes some people (especially children, who trust more) vulnerable to religious indoctrination. Some can't get rid of the idea that someone must be hosting this party, although, like Gatsby, few have seen him, and it feels impolite to criticise the menu, so they swallow it all without reading.
Very, very well done Professor Dawkins, and how honest of you to explain what you learned from it. You never think of yourself as the Oracle. You are so impressive and, sorry, but such a nice man. Thank you.
