Richard Dawkins is a British ethologist, evolutionary biologist and popular science author. He was formerly Professor for Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University. He was voted Britain's leading public intellectual by readers of Prospect magazine and was named one of Time Magazine's "100 Most Influential People" for 2007.

Dawkins came to prominence with his 1976 book "The Selfish Gene", which popularised the gene-centred view of evolution and introduced the term "meme". He is a prominent critic of creationism and intelligent design. In his 1986 book "The Blind Watchmaker", he argued against the watchmaker analogy, an argument for the existence of a supernatural creator based upon the complexity of living organisms. Instead, he described evolutionary processes as analogous to a blind watchmaker. He has since written several popular science books, and makes regular television and radio appearances, predominantly discussing these topics.

Richard Dawkins is an atheist, secular humanist, sceptic, scientific rationalist, and supporter of the Brights movement. In his 2006 book "The God Delusion", he contends that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist and that faith qualifies as a delusion − as a fixed false belief.

  • @sailcat9 I would go further, it's not only a lie - it's a scam on a global scale.

  • I don't understand why people feel they have to take sides in the debate. The way I see it, God is the "who" and maybe the "why" in our existence.... Evolution can be the "how". Couldn't God have used evolution to create everything we see today?

  • @victormania2008 Did you watch the video or are you just trolling?

  • @SumAwe69 Go on then.

  • first of all what prove is there that can say that god does not exist? any smart atheist out there who can answer me without insults or with a serious answer. come on i want someone serious out there

  • @HippieBunny123 Why do you feel it is necessary?

  • Out of context, I could imagine his voice in a nature documentary, a la David Attenborough.

  • You can't disprove God...or zues, or satan, or apollo, or vishnu, or santa clause, or the easter bunny,or....

  • God's existence is something that should not be tried to prove or disprove. Faith is a beautiful thing. It is necessary to believe in something else than what we just see or know to be there.

  • I can prove a personal God doesn't exist if you want me to

  • It is millitant atheists who are ignorant and stupid. At the end of the day, they are fighting to tell people not to believe there is a better life after this one and instead believe there is nothing when we die.
