Dawkins is one of the most famous atheists in the world. The man is totally wrong about God and he WILL meet his maker one day; but about Transgenderism – he is SPOT ON!
Dawkins added that those who have tried to cancel JK Rowling for making same point are ‘bullies’
During a recent interview with British journalist Piers Morgan, famed atheist and biologist Richard Dawkins declared that “there are two sexes, and that’s all there is to it.”
He added that LGBTQ activists looking to discredit the reality of two biological sexes are pushing “utter nonsense.”

The famous critic of religion spoke with Morgan during a recent episode of “Piers Morgan Uncensored.” The host prompted Hawkins by mentioning how “extraordinary” it is that LGBTQ activists and woke ideologues “want to what they call, de-gender and neutralize language.”
Morgan was referring to a recent list of problematic words put out by the “EBB Language Project,” a collection of academics looking to police words that could potentially be found to be politically incorrect. The proposed list contains gendered words such as “male, female, man, woman, mother, father,” U.K. outlet The Telegraph reported.
Dawkins had commented on the project last month, telling the paper, “The only possible response is contemptuous ridicule. I shall continue to use every one of the prohibited words. I am a professional user of the English language. It is my native language.”
During their interview, Morgan trashed such language policing and the idea there aren’t two sexes, saying, “I mean, it’s incontrovertible. There’s no scientific doubt about this.” He also noted that a “small group of people have been quite successful actually in reshaping vast swathes of the way society talks and is allowed to talk.”
Dawkins immediately discredited the entire movement by saying, “It’s bullying.” Mentioning famous people who have been demonized for going against these activists, the renowned researcher added, “And we’ve seen the way J.K. Rowling has been bullied, Kathleen Stock has been bullied. They’ve stood up to it. But it’s very upsetting the way this tiny minority of people has managed to capture the discourse and really talk errant nonsense.”

Upon Morgan asking Dawkins how to combat the “nonsense,” Dawkins replied, “Science.”
He then said, “There are two sexes. You can talk about gender if you wish, and that’s subjective.” Morgan asked him about people who claim there are “a hundred genders,” though Dawkins claimed, “I’m not interested in that.”
He said bluntly, “As a biologist, there are two sexes, and that’s all there is to it.”
Subsequently, the host mentioned how Dawkins has had his career and reputation dinged for simply asking questions about inconsistencies in the left’s dogmas on gender and identity.
Morgan mentioned, “You had your award stripped because you were effectively doing what J.K. Rowling and others have said – you were just espousing a biological fact.”
Dawkins shot back, “I wasn’t even doing that. I was asking people to discuss. Discuss. That’s what I’ve done all my life in universities.”
Morgan asked Dawkins why society has “lost that ability to actually have an open and frank debate.”
The scientist replied, “There are people for whom the word ‘discuss’ doesn’t mean ‘discuss,’ it means you’ve taken a position, which I hadn’t. … I thought it was a reasonable thing to discuss.” source
I am SO tired of being scolded by the so-called “Woke” community. They are making this nonsense up as they go. But the very sad part of it is that doctors, politicians, the media and even parents are affirming this nonsense and it is ruining untold number of lives!!
This is clearly from the Evil One:
“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it”
(John 8:44).
Father I pray that those who have believed this lie would have their eyes and hearts opened to Your TRUTH. I pray this in the Name of Jesus. Amen!
MARANATHA!
I guess it’s true that every broken clock is right twice a day–unless they’re digital clocks that state am or pm, then only once a day. Hurray for ol’ Dawkins.
Amen! Pray that our Lord would open the eyes of Dawkins to see that GOD is REAL!!
Dawkins better be careful when he is adamant about there being only 2 sexes & that’s all there is to it. Doesn’t he realize he is making an absolute statement? Is his evolutionist foundation of sand crumbling underneath him? Maybe coming to grips about the undeniable scientific facts of how the universe is so intricately tied together & maintained has gotten his attention.
If you are honest the evidence of a super intelligent causation (see Rom 1:20) is unavoidable. The universe & earth scream out mathematical perfection & if only one of its myriads of calculations are slightly askew or in error the whole universe goes into chaos & a death spiral.
Only the Bible can properly identify the One who caused it. Col1:17 “And He (Jesus) is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.”
Maybe God is lifting the scales from his eyes.
I guess my point was something like “Even an ignorant atheist knows there are just two genders.”
