Also fittest doesn't mean "strongest". It means what is the most practical.
Besides animals fight over limited resources and rarely do it out of spite. Humans do resource wars and ideology wars in equal amounts.

If God is a delusion, then God didn't create squat because he's not real, and you're a moron.

Oh, for fucks sake. Your faulty logic makes the philosophical part of me rather irate.

If as you say God is a delusion, and God created humanity, then humanity is a delusion.
If God is a delusion, then it wasn't Him that created humanity in the first place. Therefore God's existence as it relates to humanity's existence would be a complete non-issue.

"Survival of the fittest" = if you're stronger, faster, or smarter than your food, you have dinner regularly, as well as a great chance for procreating. If not, you will probably be dinner for something else.
Protip: Freddy and Jason are make-believe characters, much like your god in their habits.

This is infantile reasoning. Go learn something about logic before you start to take on this kind of stuff.

Wow. Talk about missing the point. If you don't believe in God then you wouldn't believe he created humanity at all. You'd say that our existance had nothing to do with God. David's logic is completely screwed up. Hey, David, do you really expect Dawkins to say "Oh, dear I hadn't thought of that," and disappear in a puff of logic?
Because there is no logic here.
Actually, it kind of reminds me of this passage from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:
"It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination."
Only that made more sense. Lots more sense.
(Sorry. I'm awful. If you give me a chance to quote or reference H2G2 I'll leap all over it.)

That picture of the penguin reasoning that all penguins are old TV shows would be appropriate here.

For these delusion ideas, I have one thing to say: "I think therefore I am." -- Renee Descartes
And no, survival of the fittest does not mean "kill or be killed", it means "survive as long as you can". Putting oneself in "kill or be killed" situations is in fact working AGAINST this goal.

Wow, this Dawin guy sounds as evil as some of those really bad characters in fiction, like Freddy, Jason, and Yahweh. Good thing Charles Darwin never said anything of the sort, huh?

If as you say God is a delusion, and God created humanity...
If your god is a delusion (which it is) then it didn't create humanity, because it doesn't exist.

Freddy and Jason?
Didn't they have it out a bit ago? No, no, I really don't think those boys get along well enough for it to be an "and" possibility... besides the Dawkins would totally kick ass.

you need a refresher on what qualifies as a SYLLOGISM: "If as you say God is a delusion, and God created humanity, then humanity is a delusion" reductio ad absurdem bitch!

I don't know why you want to tell me
When I'm right or when you're wrong
It's the same thing, in your mind, the only time
I'm right is when I play along
You concern yourself with evidence
It's evident to me
Well you say you've got the tiger by the tail
But I don't see these things that way

My answer crashed and then I had to go do some stuff, so I'll try again...
If as you say God is a delusion, and God created humanity, then humanity is a delusion.
Fail #1
If god is a delusion, than your god didn't make a damn thing. It's like me saying that you don't exist because the dragon in my garage doesn't know you.
How do you know you are real and am talking to me? There is no one telling you you exist![/i]
FAIL #2
So you only exist if someone tells you that you exist? Well I'm sure Dawkins family acknowledges his existence on a fairly regular basis, but now I'm wondering about bushmen. Do they exist?
If there is no god, then evolution would never have happened and humanity is a great lie.
FAIL #3
But if God existed then creation happened and evolution is a lie, would you idiots please pick a theory
Dawin says "survival of the fittest" and that means "kill or be killed" without care to morality
FAIL #4
Survival of the fittest has nothing to do with who's the biggest and baddest. You put a coyote against a wolf and the coyote doesn't have a hope in hell of winning. Yet since man has shown up wolves have almost been decimated and coyotes populations have exploded into 19 sub-species. Not because they are bigger or meaner, but because they were more adaptable and learned how to live with the bald apes.
Of course you don't care, since you are not even human
FAIL #5
Unless of course you have proof that Dawkins has evolved past homosapien, in which case bring your evidence foreward, you'd get a Nobel prize. Or are you just declaring him untermensch
Why don't you make friends with Freddy Kreuger and Jason Vorhees, because they think just like you?
FAIL #6
Those are fictional characters, why didn't you choose real murderers, like Dhalmer (oops he was a fundie wasn't he) or Gacey (damn another church going Christian), how about Dennis Rader (damn he was a decon of his church)... Yeah I guess your stuck with the fictional characters. Sucks for you doesn't it
