Richard Dawkins Torn Limb From Limb - By Atheists

Skepchick vs Dawkins. I know Christians also turn on each other, but at least don't swear as much: Richard Dawkins Torn Limb From Limb - By Atheists:
It's enough to make you wonder if anybody knows what the hell rationality's all about. Not incidentally, this isn't the first time skeptics have become so uselessly derailed. This is the movement that almost boarded up shop for a week last year while it tried to figure out if the 'Skepticon' gathering had too many atheists on its speaker roster, and oughtn't therefore be called 'Atheistcon.' This is the movement in which a respected leader not long ago gave a talk entitled 'Don't Be a Dick,' and the suggestion was so novel that nobody shut up about it for weeks.

That's skeptics. Rational about everything except themselves, self-preservation, and manners.
