Post Bedes quotes and reality

Bede writes on his web site 'Dawkins makes various snide and unnecessary asides about what he thinks of religion like mentioning how he saw it coupled with UFOs on a bookshop's shelf, or using a waving statue of Mary to say we should never look for a supernatural explanation.'

What does 'say' mean here? Can Bede produce a quote of Dawkings with the words 'never look for a supernatural explanation', (in any order, I don't mind), somwhere in Dawkins discussion of a theoretical waving statue?

Or is Bede simply fabricating things?

Since your question was merely rhetorical, I'll finish this thread for you: Bede simply fabricates things.

Sounds like the Pot calling the Kettle black if you ask me, which you didn't, but I really don't care 'cause I'm gonna say it anyways.

Exclamation

This thread really doesn't belong here, so I am going to move it to RRP.
