I understand he’s a respected biologist and people like him for being one of the “Four Horseman of the New Atheist Movement” (Such an overly dramatic title), but he’s a genuinely horrible human being.
Interesting, thanks for sharing. It really does seem out of place to suddenly reference the suffering of Muslim women in this context.
He seems to elaborate in that he just thinks this case was an overreaction on the side of the woman who felt uneasy, but that of course is a different discussion. We’re not comparing suffering here. I understand the negativity he seems to have brought up on himself better now.
I absolutely do!
