What are the religious views of Richard Dawkins?
Richard Dawkins views religion (particularly revealed religion) as being more harmful than helpful to humanity, and inimical to human life and progress. He is one of a relatively new brand of scientists who believes that science has been too accommodating to religion for too long, and that science does, indeed, have something to say about God(s) and morality.
What is Richard Dawkins' view on Creationism?
Richard Dawkins is the Charles Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science, at Oxford University. In this position, he clearly has a sound understanding of scientific issues such as evolution and the creation of the universe. This has led him to believe that Creationism is inherently untrue. Since his role is to advance the public understaning of Science, he has written books such as The God Delusion(Bantam Press, 2006) to explain his views.I think that Professor Dawkins sees Creationism as dependently linked to religious belief. Where he views Creationism to contend with Science, which he asserts is quite often, Dawkins prefers to focus on the inherent failure of the underlying religious belief rather than simply demonstrating the error of the Creationist belief and leaving the proponent to continue in his or her religious beliefs.The debate around creationism and evolution is more fully covered in: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

Do you agree with Dawkins that Kurt Wise the famous ex-atheistic scientist was never tortured?
There is a "Young-Earth Creationist" called Kurt Wise, whom Richard Dawkins discusses, but it seems he was never an atheist, since Wikipedia says that he formed his owns views on creationism as a child. Dawkins called Wise a truly honest creationist because he is willing to accept creationism even if he admitted "all the evidence in the universe" was against it. There is no reason to believe that Wise was tortured. If by 'torture' we mean no more than religious indoctrination, that is an improper allusion. Kurt Wise may owe his unique interpretation of science to his childhood upbringing, but he was not tortured.
