Maybe the dedication in the next edition will be a apology to the members of the thriving forum that Prof. Dawkins allowed a suppurating rat's rectum with a penchant for embezzlement to destroy.

This is so much fun! But really Cali, this is small beer compared with some of my lots money grabbing vile and criminal behaviour. In terms of some Christian televangelist scandals, hell this really is just a minor transgression!

It's really just icing on the arsehat cake, you are right jerome, and it isn't even shocking, but it is a rather nice feeling to know that the old character radar did not make an error when I described JT in the less than glowing terms that I did - reckon I could have justifiably been even more scathing, though I did pick the appropriate tone to suit his personality nicely when I chose excrimental descriptors.

Richard Dawkins can still kiss my ass. He apparently has less skill in picking his inner circle than he displayed in terminating his old forum. Maybe he can now understand how it feels to be betrayed, which is an emotion many that contributed to the old forum experienced in spades. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Where is the passionate defense of Josh now, Richard? Richard, we told you Josh was an idiot but you knew more than the collective. Basically you told all of us to fuck off, didn't you? Live with what you supported and who you supported. You both deserve each other, and as far as I'm concerned you are both high profile idiots and need a lesson in humility. Maybe this latest insanity will suffice, but I have serious doubts.

Riddlemethis deserves to be recognised as a sound and astute judge of character, whose justly famous words Richard would have done well to heed! YOu should copyright them.

Talking of which, there is some suggestions in the JREF thread that if JT was NOT an employee of the RDF he MIGHT own some of the rights. This wil be a matter of contract law and iP though and I have no idea

This is amazing. This is why I should never go to sleep. I miss out on breaking news like this!

I suggest that you all get your hands on copies of the book with the original dedication written in, because they're going to be worth quite a bit to collectors in years to come.

Regardless of how much Josh should have been paid by Richard, stealing from a charity is a truly low act. A genuinely horrible thing to do. If the allegations are true, Josh is far more than a suppurating rat's rectum.

So all those goodies I bought from the store were to help Josh build a spa for his girlfriend's mansion?

Fookin' 'ell! Well and truly Joshed!

Here are a few suggested book titles for RD:

The Selfish Josh.
The Expensive Employee.
The Blind Employer.
Unweaving the RDF.
The Auditor's Tale.
The Josh Delusion.
The Greatest Blow to RDF: The Evidence for Embezzlement.

Couldn't happen to two nicer people!

Oh...that is....just rich....

I don't know. I feel sort of validated.

Joshed, I say.

quill wrote:No, I'm sorry, it's outrageous. No punk kid fresh out of college deserves to be making twice what most FAMILIES make for setting up and running an online store to sell t-shirts for a supposed charity. Anyone can do that on a budget of $50, FFS. What sold the t-shirts was Richard Dawkins' name, not some genius web design.

And if Dawkins was paying him that excessively, I can only imagine what he's been paying everyone else in the organization.

That's a good point.

I wouldn't trust either of them with a fucking mousetrap.

That is a real work of satirical skill. Copyright it quick before Timonen tries to claim intellectual property rights over it.

Duuuuude.

Wow excitement.
You have to be careful how far you trust people.
I wonder why he's suing for so much more than was alleged to have been stolen.

Good call, I checked, the comment has been removed by a moderator.

Josh you fucking scoundrel, thank you for at least being such a lazy embezzler.

I've just had a look on RD.net and I've noticed that there aren't any topics on this. Surely that can't be through none of their members being aware of it. Is discussion of this being moderated out of the public eye?
