# It's better than Hitchens's attempt at the same topic.
Which isn't saying much.

# I have read Dawkins in the past,
and enjoyed him a lot. But it seemed too preachy to me, which may well be missing the point.

# It is good.
Kinda preachy and value laden, personally I'd prefer just the facts, but still very worthwhile. What I like most is his sense of wonder at the natural world: "Here's how it all works and isn't it awesome!"

# As a scientific writer,
he is probably the best in the world in my opinion. However, I really didn't like The God Delusion. He is trying to use science to explain something that I don't think is possible. And before you accuse me of it, I am not a creationist, and I don't believe everything the bible says :)

# it is very good
he himself is a little odd, but his clarity of thought is amazing

# He is rubbish.
I am no short Earther, but 'You are all loonies' is no argument - the man is a fundamentalist cock.

# His argument as well is to very much
miss the distinction between Faith/Spiritualism and Religion.

# Indeed.
He argues against religion in ways which also oppose atheism at times as well, which would be fine if he was proclaiming agnosticism, but he's not, he's just a prick going 'SCIENCE, MOTHERFUCKERS!; without really getting it.

It's like a n00b b3ta tr0ll

# And the general attitude that to be a scientist
and "religious" is wholly incompatible. I was brought up in the Catholic Church my whole life and still consider myself to be a Catholic. My mother, who brought me up in said faith, has a First in Molecular Biology. Sounds like a scientist to me....
