Dawkins v Sachs

Jews argue with God. That is one reason why an atheist can usually get along better with a jewish believer than with a christian/muslim who is blindly obeissant to his/her pastor's/iman's interpretation of the word of god.

Here's an article on the subject:

This may also explain why Lord Sachs does far better in argument with Richard Dawkins than other theists:

Lord Sachs does not win, of course, but he is engaging.
