All I know about him is form his lecture videos and television appearances and so far like what I see. So, I was hoping you'd actually give me the argument here so that I can judge his philosophical base without having to go through the trouble of reading the book.
Same here, except I also wouldn't watch the movie. I have watched many, many hours of videos featuring Dawkins on Youtube, though. So far his arguments have been sound, even though he's a fairly awful dabater (as he admits). I've also never heard mention of any flaws in the arguments from his books, with the exception of those from theists who find "flaws" in his arguments for evolution. That's not to say the flaws aren't there. I'm just very interested in knowing what, exactly, the flaws are.
