"absolutely lacked the latter to a great degree"
You realize he's still alive.
"most of his conclusions are imbalanced and subhuman"
Yeah, right. I'm sure you've read many of his books. Or just watched a few youtube clips.
I started reading Dawkins in 1984 and he's been a huge positive influence. Go read "The Selfish Gene" and "The Extended Phenotype" and then tell me "most of his conclusions are imbalanced and subhuman". He's a biologist. He only got into atheism education after 9/11 plus idiots continually clamoring for our educational systems to revert back to pre-copernicus.
The guy's a genius, that's pretty well established.
