Banned

Ricahrd Dawkins' website, richarddawkins.net, has been banned in Turkey. Why? Because he called a Turkish creationist's book "preposterous" and inane. This, according to a Turkish court, is defamatory and blasphemous, so the entire website has been blocked from Turkish internet users, who obviously can't be trusted to read and assess such criticism for themselves.
