• The New Atheists, Free Will, And “Block” Universes.

    What good company I am in here at skeptic blogs! Arizona Atheist wrote a really good post about how the critics of the new atheists get it wrong. Right on! It has never ceased to amaze me how the critics of the Dawkins, Harris and Hitchens get the facts wrong, cartoon or lie about the New Atheists, or just make really weak arguments. It reminds me of the criticisms of Dawkins’ main argument in The God Delusion (which another blogger collected and splendidly demolished).

    I just read one of the best philosophy blog posts in the entire history of the internet: it’s on the scientific concept of the “block” universe and its implications for time travel, free will, and the beginning of the universe, brought to you by A Tippling Philosopher.
