The cover-up of Richard Dawkins
We've all seen enough evidence that Dawkins is being a coward refusing to debate William Lane Craig. However, what's got worse for him is that he has also said his colleague who refused to debate Craig on his Reasonable Faith tour in the U.K., A.C. Grayling, has also said he has never debated Craig. A comment by Dawkins himself at his forum shows this:
http://richarddawkins.net/articles/6...comment_630637
Note the following statement of Grayling:
Then what is this?By the way, Craig claims to have debated me before - that is not correct, unless a brief and rather pointless exchange of emails counts as such.

One could possibly use a memory lapse as an excuse, but in a prepared statement sent to Dawkins to be passed on, one would think Grayling would check his facts. Was he hoping no one would remember it?
A friend of mine from Unbelievable? told me about a comment on Dawkins's own forum, that he asked me to take some shots of. The quality is not the best, but I have the following pictures:

These were comment 150.
Now what do you see if you go to Dawkins's forum?
http://richarddawkins.net/articles/6...omments?page=5
Why yes. That comment has already been removed.
Meanwhile, the rest of us will sit back and enjoy the show. For the sake of argument, it could be Craig is wrong in all he's ever argued, but why is it that Dawkins and Grayling are going to so much trouble to cover this up? Could it be so Dawkins himself will not have to face Craig?

Re: The cover-up of Richard Dawkins
I'm not fully understanding this. What exactly is being covered up? What is the comment that you mention?

Re: The cover-up of Richard Dawkins
The photos are of comments with a link indicating where Grayling did in fact debate Craig. Whenever this comment is made, Dawkins is deleting it and banning the person who posted it.

Re: The cover-up of Richard Dawkins
I think when you combine this with Dawkins own refusal to debate and mix in his recent eyebrow-raising remarks concerning women being hit on in elevators I think we can agree with the following statement: Mr. Dawkins, me thinks you are like a weasel (to paraphrase).
