I was also quite surprised to see Audray labeling Dawkins as
fundamentalist. I don't think such label is correctly applied here.
When Audray utters `scientists have no more knowledge of the, origin
of the universe than a person who believes in God' it baffles me,
seriously! All the painstaking efforts of Stephen Hawking, Alan
Guth, Linde or Vilenkin are then useless! Many prominent physicists
and cosmologists have published papers in reputable scientific
journals proposing various scenarios by which the big bang appeared
naturally out of a preexisting universe that itself need not have
had a beginning. We have scenarios like "The Cyclic Universe"
or `inflationary model' already. Some of the models had recently
undergone a number of stringent observational tests and passed these
tests with flying colors. We are gaining knowledge day by day from
those fruitful researches. Indeed, we have some ultimate mysteries,
but it will be the scientists who will eventually solve those
mysteries, not religionists. To claim scientists are no more
knowledgeable in finding origin of universe compared to religionists
are just mere extreme, even though I am not labelling anyone as 'fundamentalist'.
Lastly I don't think the topic (whether Dawkins was a
fundamentalist or not) is being discussed under correct title here.
I have kept it separated in our blog site:
