Dawkins is refreshingly clear about what he DOESN'T know. How many people do you know that "bookend" their statements with self-critical skepticism when discussing concepts outside of their expertise? Intellectual honesty for the win!

Like him or not, Dawkins is doing his part on trying to get the world rid of all that fundamentalist (and thus tendencious to anti-intellectualism) religion around the world, and we all know some religions have more cons than pros.
You got to be blind or deaf (or both) if you didn't notice how very religious people tend to know less than not so much religious people, and these people, if properly directed could be helping develop our scientific, medical and technological progress.

How can someone not get Dennett's distinction between a crane and a skyhook? I thought it made perfect sense.
Anyway I do enjoy Dawkins' discussion of these topics. He is always very clear and concise, and the fascinating nature of the origin of life makes it all the more enthralling.
