Celebrated atheist and evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins has denounced the use of “Islamophobia” as a perversion of language to escape rational argument.
“Islamophobia is a deeply silly and pernicious abuse of language, and is not the only fashionable word ending in -phobia that condemns itself as a last-resort substitute for rational discussion,” Dawkins posted on Twitter late Tuesday, in reference to “homophobia,” “transphobia,” and other phobias du jour.
