So I guess you think the same thing about Carl Sagan, Asimov, Hawking... Dawkins gives lectures, sometimes for hours, teaching people on science and alas look at the shame he advises people to read his books and learn more about science - what a duplicitous cunt! He should just go on Jimmy Fallon and tell few fart jokes for five minutes and get it over with.
I mean people sure can use more knowledge, because evolution is not something that you can easily understand, especially not solely from boring textbooks, starting from my ex-biology teacher. When I just remember some of nebulousities she would tell us like that water freezes underground in winter and that is the reason why trees lose leafs. Or when she "thought" us about evolution telling us that if we start jogging every day our kids will be born with stronger leg muscles - umm no! That's not evolution that's Lamarckism! Not to mention other teacher that was teaching us that pyramids were built by aliens and world will end in 2012 and these are supposed to be people schooled in knowledge.
Not to mention some of Dawkins documentaries like one of his more recent "RICHARD DAWKINS: Sex, Death And The Meaning Of Life" that starts with him saying such bold words: "More and more of us realize that there is no god and yet religion has hold of us." I mean that is so controversial and ahead of it' time that Dawkins documentaries don't air in many of the so called Western World countries because religions still hold that strong of a grip over people.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
