Counterpoints: Peter S. Williams and Richard Dawkins on Science and God

Richard Dawkins- "God cannot be proved by any scientific hypothesis. Therefore he does not exist."1

Peter S. Williams- "...neither can the proposition that 'unless something can be proved by a scientific hypothesis it does not exist' be proved by any scientific hypothesis.  By Dawkins' own standard, his objection to theism doesn't even exist!  Dawkins' scientistic attack-plan begins with lopping off his own sword arm."2

Courage and Godspeed,
