I like going to Superman movies, I don’t actually believe in him.

The title should read: Richard Dawkins on respect.
He's eminently reasonable.

Most atheists from a Christian upbringing still love Christmas, I do.

[HaveAgoodDayFellas]

Daym i am an atheist and i am really happy to hear his speeches !🥳❤️‍🔥

[zenon_kokon]

I very much admire this man, for his accomplishments in science but also for his gentle answers even for the dumbest questions

[pawpal]

I am starting liking this guy. All respect to him.

Christmas is a pagan solstice holiday that Christian co opted.

Hindus celebrate christmas too, they love jesus too, doesnt mean they dont believe in their own culture or faith, it's just that their faith teaches to love and respect everyone who promotes love and peace in this world.

[Oldfarmlady]

I had some friends ask me about this. Being atheist and celebrating Xmas. My response was simple. X-mas origins have absolutely nothing to do with Jesus or God.

Hinduism isn't about monotheism like Abrahamic religion or Polytheism it's all about pluralism acceptance of all believes

[moondogcourtney]

Exactly!!!...Politeness and kindness works ALWAYS!!!

[mastu]

I absolutely agree with him, you can respect a culture even if you don't agree with it

"But draw the line at throwing gays off of rooftops". Not every culture needs you to enable it.

[jameswebb]

I like watching Dragon Ball Z, doesn't mean i believe in immensely powerful aliens with enough hair styles to put a barber out of business

[PracticeIe]

They are talking about respect but it sounds like tolerance.

[vinaytripathi]

Dwakins earned my respect...politeness and courtesy are enough...you don't need to be a believer to be a hindu

[FactStorm]

Sick of people conflating things, rendering a fallacy.
They were trying to trap Dawkins in a "gotcha!" moment, but it fails miserably per usual. It is religious apologists & their secular apologists who are always losing arguments. Supernatural dogma will never, ever win..much less in measly, amateur debates.

[vikrame]

As a sindhi i used to celebrate Christmas in childhood but now i know that Santa is a bluff and Jesus wasn't born on that day. So i don't celebrate Christmas anymore.

Moreover, no Christian celebrates RAMNAVMI why should i celebrate Christmas. I only celebrate my own traditions cause they make more sense to me and they are real.

Richard respects everyone, that's more than believers reciprocated back to normal not brainwashed people.
