Richard Dawkins Takes on Islam

In an article in Andhra News, Richard Dawkins is quoted as saying that Muslims are importing creationism into the UK and it needs to be stopped. The story reports:

The Telegraph quoted Professor Dawkins as saying in a Sunday newspaper interview that: "Teachers are bending over backwards to respect home prejudices that children have been brought up with. The Government could do more, but it doesn't want to because it is fanatical about multiculturalism and the need to respect the different traditions from which these children come."

and

"It seems as though teachers are terribly frightened of being thought racist. It's almost impossible to say anything against Islam in this country, because [if you do] you are accused of being racist or Islamophobic."

He has an uphill battle, especially since that "hairy idiot" Archbishop Rowan Williams (of Canterbury, no less) suggested that Sharia should be accommodated within the British legal system. They don't call it Londonistan for nothing.
