Richard Dawkins causes outcry after likening the burka to a bin liner

The 69-year-old author and Oxford academic said he is filled with â€œvisceral revulsionâ€ when he sees women wearing the traditional Islamic covering.

But he held back from advocating a ban on the all-enveloping cloak, insisting that such legislation would fly in the face of Britainâ€™s liberal tradition.

Professor Dawkins referred to the burka as a â€œfull bin-liner thingâ€ in an interview with the Radio Times in which he discussed his forthcoming documentary on the dangers of faith schools.

"Richard Dawkins causes outcry after likening the burka to a bin liner".

Cheap shot--and a dangerous one, too.

"...in an interview with the Radio Times in which he discussed his forthcoming documentary on the dangers of faith schools."

The "atheist" condemning the "muslim" - Both will spend their eternity in hell. The one because he is a "Fool" iaw Psalm 53:1, "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good."

The other because he practices a man made false religion which CANNOT worship and know the FATHER of Jesus. (The Koran denies God has a Son)

Matthew 11:27 "All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him."

But dear old Dawkins shares one piece of ignorance with his muslim buddy; - Both do not know the truth and will find it out too late.
