Totally silly. The central tenents of organized religion is a clergy that sucks off the masses like a parasitic tick, and belief is the supernatural and a set of stupid rules you have to follow. It always has a set of beliefs. 100% of the time.
Dawkins is a biologist who gets paid by Oxford and writes books. Nobody says he speaks for a higher power nor claims him to be infallible. I've never read any of his books myself.
What a load of nonsense. You are just taking a few characteristics of internet atheists and linking them with fragility to a few characteristics of organized religion. Look at all the temples in Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, and Hinduism. They all have them. A place that people go. Atheism? Not so much. I could go on and on about the difference that occur 100% of the time. But if you haven't realized that on your own, I can't really imagine it being a productive conversation.
Mostly this argument is just used to troll Atheists by people who actually feel organized religion is a good thing. So how could they use it as an attack?
Don't be silly.
