HELL FREEZES OVER: Famous Atheist Says He’s Now a ‘Cultural Christian’

Famous atheist, author, and biologist Richard Dawkins surprised fans around the world this week when he called himself a ‘cultural Christian’ and declared the United Kingdom a ‘Christian nation.’

"If I had to choose between Christianity and Islam, I'd choose Christianity every single time."

“I must say I’m slightly horrified to hear that Ramadan is being promoted instead,” Dawkins said in an interview Sunday. “I feel that we are a Christian country.”

“It’s true that statistically, the number of people who actually believe in Christianity is going down and I’m happy with that, but I would not be happy if, for example, we lost all our cathedrals and our beautiful parish churches. So, I count myself a cultural Christian. I think it would matter if we… substituted any alternative religion, that would be truly dreadful,” he added.

“It seems to me to be a fundamentally decent religion in a way that I think Islam is not.”
