It's exactly the same argument as laid out in The God Delusion, published in 2006. It's emphatically not news that Dawkins thinks this way, but it's symptomatic of how he's portrayed in the media.
For anyone who sat through the whole debate between him and Rowan Williams, it was mostly two exceedingly polite men mostly agreeing with each other a lot and agreeing to disagree on a few matters, but there's got to be a story about an arrogant atheist in there somewhere.

This is a good pointDawkins is also a lot better when he's not dealing with the lunatic fringe - that brings out the worst in him, making him join the lunatics.
