Incorporate former prominent atheist turned deist Antony Flew's criticism of the God Delusion at Conservapedia

"Professor Anthony Flew (who at one time was quite possibly the most famous atheist academic in the world and who later actually abandoned his atheism to adopt theism due to recent advances in science) commented that “The fault of Dawkins as an academic…was his scandalous and apparently deliberate refusal to present the doctrine he appears to think he has refuted in its strongest form”.[1]

Living People

Should there be a category "Living People" as there is in Wikipedia and this article be put in it?Carltonio (talk) 10:56, 8 March 2019 (EST)
