A Tip: Don't Talk Inheritances Around People Who Have Never Got One, Never Had A Vacation, Rode In Airplanes


Richard Dawkins is from a slave owning family, and the revelation seems to have the public atheist coming apart at the seams:



"One of the most disagreeable verses of the Bible – amid strong competition – says the sins of the father shall be visited on the children until the third or fourth generation."

Audibly irritated, he added: "You need a genetics lecture. Do you realise that probably only about 1 in 512 of my genes come from Henry Dawkins?

"For goodness sake, William Wilberforce may have been a devout Christian, but slavery is sanctioned throughout the Bible."

Richard Dawkins' sister Sarah Kettlewell, 67, is thought still to live on the estate, which has a farm shop and pedigree cattle. 

According to Companies House records which list Professor Dawkins as a director, Over Norton Park Limited made a £12,000 profit last year.

He insisted: "The estate is now a very small farm, struggling to make its way, and worth peanuts. The family fortune was frittered away in the 19th Century. Such money as I have is scarcely inherited at all."

He is now facing calls to apologise and make reparations for his family's past.

Esther Stanford-Xosei, of Lewisham, south London, the co-vice chairman of the Pan-African Reparations Coalition in Europe, said: "There is no statute of limitations on crimes against humanity.

"The words of the apology need to be backed by action."

The revelations come after a difficult few days for the campaigner.
