Did he happen to say why or what about it was trash? Otherwise it just sounds like the kind of bias that proves the point Dawkins was making.
No bias. He started reading it specifically because he was being open minded and objective, and wanted to see things from the "other side's" perspective. So he asked one of his atheist friends for a recommendation and that was it. Don't remember specifically what turned him off to it, as it was several years ago now. I'll have to ask.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
