Richard Dawkins doesn't condemn the perpetrator who molested him as a child

[Blackking]

mildly defend........ misguided and biased statements brehs..

I think that his comments about his violation as mentioned in this article clearly shows that he needs help.

The fact that he is famous and respected is how this issue has gone unnoticed for so long.

A sane mind is more valuable than fame or recognition.

If you came to that conclusion, more power to you. To me, it sounded as someone who has thought about the whole thing and has found inner peace. Hell, people usually don't talk about issues like this publicly unless it's the case.

I hardly doubt a guy of his stature hasn't thought about this issue for years, read tons of books on the issue, and consulted top-notch therapists. If he felt the need to.

have a mild version of Stockholm syndrome brehs....

That's the thing. "If he felt the need to."

I don't think he did personally because one of them would of addressed this issue a long time ago.

The fact that he is respected for his intellect and thoughts even sounds like a factor that would make him less likely to seek mental help.

I would need to see proof of him getting mental help because this statement he made shows otherwise.

Wow, you kind of sound like a birther now lol

Anyway, no idea why you're assuming he never seeked help. You really think he just started talking about being molested to a random reporter without having some kind of intellectual and emotional journey? shyt even out of sheer intellectual curiosity he must've at least read a book or two lol

And maybe he just reached this conclusion, whether we like it or not.

I'm assuming because this thought he still has in his head that any guy who seeked help wouldn't have.

Many people think they can give themself help and that never works.

This is who you guys listen to?

He is just as bad as those evil catholic priests who touch those unfortunate little boys.

More proof that even without religion or even theism this world would still be fukked up.

I told you Richard got touched but no, demons didnt believe me. Sad. He doesnt seem to bothered by it, yet he brings it up. Probably grew up having the thoughts of his attacker. Sad.

I try to tell friends that atheists are often individuals that are fatherless, have neglectful fathers, were molested or were exposed sexually at a young age by moist kids but sadly, theres no one brave enough to really dig into these studies.

I wonder if Richards father would have been mildly upset if he found out about it when it happened.

Its so demonic, friends.

idk about the rest of this..........

but it is funny that people have been saying this shyt for years about Richard and these guys have been saying "no, fukk u".




IT's just weird. His stance is weird. IF a guy touched my sons penis, I wouldn't think of it as mild.


Have suppressed feelings and justify mild kid wee wee touching, brehs.

No offense, but I'm not sure either of us is qualified to interpret what molestation victims think/believe, so I'll trust Dawkins' judgement on this one. You kind of sound like those parents who will gladly lock their kids in a mental institution "for their own good" lol.

Any sane person is qualified to say what is insane. What he said is bat shyt crazy.

I know you admire the man for his many thoughts and such but this is no bueno.

Friends were saying that for ages on hamster and all these demons would say is

*proof or it didnt happen* *proof or it didnt happen*

Now Dawkins career is in jeopardy because he decided to side with the demonic individual that scarred him for life. Richard doesnt realize that when he got violated a demon was transferred to him. Take away that singular moment and Richard probably would have been a staunch believer in God. Now, we'll never know wow,

Its so demonic, friends.

All right Doc.

Alright delusional one.

 

[Fillerguy]

Sounds like he's trying to minimize it for himself (rather than others who I suspect actually sympathize with molesters and are suspect themselves). Like the girl on twitter yesterday talking about her uncle gave her her first orgasm and used to finger her. She said, copped pleas like, "at least he made me..." and "he only did it like twice". More so trying to cope with it herself, than I think actually excusing it.

I could be wrong and he could be a pervert. I've only read one of his books, I have no feel for him as a human being.

Being able to forgive, or even understand why someone might resort to something like is really up to the individual who went through it. I myself have experienced sexual abuse at a young age and while it certainly did have lasting effects i'm at a place in my life, largely because of my spiritual philosophy that gives me a perspective on the issue that makes less room for judgement about the situation or the people involved.

Sounds like what he's saying is along those lines, I don't know if I agree about him not condemning people because of the era or time frame...that just sounds weird but I understand where he's coming from.
