Dawkins is a good scientist. This is his specialism. He had some crazy opposition from the usual religious crazies and understandably retaliated. He writes clearly and well, and found himself suddenly a best selling author. Rich on the back of a popularist ignorant perspective. Anyone doing slightly more than scratching the surface sees this for what it is: unadulterated ignorance.
Yes, your sad attempt to dismiss him does indeed betray your unadulterated ignorance.
