Love, desire, ambition, faith - without them, life's so simple, believe me.

"time passes" and "love fades."
-Bob Dylan's main song lyric themes

“There is no fear for one whose mind is not filled with desires.“
The Buddha [From the Dhammapada, verse 39]

For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. James 3:16

"There is no virtue in faith"
-Richard Dawkins

Why are you lumping together the words of a Holy man (James) with the words of an evil man (dawkins)? That's completely inappropriate and totally disgusting.

And asking dawkins about virtue is like asking jeffrey dahmer about virtue, so your quotation mix is doubly inappropriate & disgusting for that reason too.

You don't like Dawkins? I do. I like Jesus, too. If there is no God, then Dawkins was right. If there is a God, He created Dawkins so how can you bad-mouth a child of God?

If dawkins is a child of anything, he's a child of satan. I do not badmouth him so much as I call a spade a spade. I call him bad because he unquestionably is bad.

The evil dawkins who exists now is certainly nothing like the dawkins who God created long ago. In other words, the dawkins who God created bears little resemblance to the dawkins who you quoted.

And God and James are both aghast that you are inappropriately associating their good & Holy Words with the evil words of that evil man.

It sounds like a certain Navaros is doing what only God is supposed to do... judge. You don't know the heart of Dawkins. You call him "evil" like he is a murderer or something.

Not really. Without a soul, conscience and empathy, there is no compassion, courage heroism.
