is exactly what makes Dawkins the opposite of a fundamentalist.
Science is constantly re-evaluating itself as new evidence is discovered. It is open to criticism and discussion. Fundamentalism is not.
If anyone found even the slightest bit of credible evidence that a God exists, I am sure Dawkins would be fascinated to see it and would alter his stance accordingly. As things stand, no such evidence is available.
Science may not be able to explain everything, but that does not mean we have to fill the gaps with God.

There's no need to fill the gaps with God but it's just as ignorant to assume that's the only possible place he can be or to assume that just because science can quantify something, it can explain it.
I have just as much problem with the Intelligent Design fuckwits as I do with Dawkins.

is not about the existence of god or not. Is invoking god (without any evidence for its existence) to to explain natural phenomena.
The house analogy is to clarify that gaps have already existed (and will already exist). Until 400 years ago, the creator was used to explain planetary motion. Now we have a scientific theory for it. So either invoking god at that point was incorrect, or our current scientific theory for planetary motion is incorrect. But we can track back the planetary theory to other scientific theories, which must be now wrong as well (otherwise our planetary motion theory would be correct) and so on and so forth, until we are left with no scientific theory at all.

I think Dawkins is happy for people to believe anything they like. It's human nature for people to believe in any number of a million different things and I doubt he believes he can stop that (in fact, he writes about possible ways such belief systems may have arisen).
However, why should he not be vocal about his views and try to convince others to take them on board? Isn't that what religion does constantly?

but a fundamentalist is somebody who cannot change his view. He has a belief system that will not alter, regardless of whatever anyone else says.
Dawkins position is not one of fundamentalism. He says, "I have looked at the evidence and this is what I conclude." His conclusion is that the likelihood of there being a God is very small.
He may argue this passionately and articulately, but that does not make him a fundamentalist. Hey may offend and annoy people along the way, but that is not fundamentalism.
Should new evidence be uncovered that throws his argument into doubt, he would amend his conclusions and possibly change his mind. That is not fundamentalism.
He lays out his reasoning and explains why he thinks what he thinks and invited others to debate with him - that is not fundamentalism.

Dawkins is NOT open to a God - have you not read the book? Sometimes he says he is, but he is not.
The problem I have is not that he states his conclusion, but that he says that anyone with a different conclusion is wrong.
Any religion, and one who questions the idea that we are a God free society is, in his words, ignorant.

at least those who believe in a mainstream interpretation of a God, have large organisations to back them up. They have many articulate and convincing people constantly speaking on their behalf and reassuring them that they are right.
This has led to the belief in a deity as the default position in most societies.
If nothing else, at least Dawkins provides an equally articulate and convincing voice for those that do not believe there is a God. Especially for those in places like the American Midwest, where there are precious few like-minded folks. He may give the impression of being intolerant towards religious beliefs, but no more so than religion is intolerant of atheism.
Also, Dawkins accepts that nobody knows if there is a God or not His arguments come from the fact it is highly unlikely that there is a God (for reasons he can articulate far better then me) and not from a stubborn refusal to believe in one.

His position, as a self appointed high priest of atheism, is just as valid as that of fundamentalist religious leaders.
That is 'not valid at all'.
People don't need to be told, ever, for any reason, that they are not allowed to believe what they want to, be that in no God, in God or in the flying spaghetti monster.
Sadly he does argue that there is no God in this book. He argues that there is no God because it doesn't fit in with his idea of what science is.
This is bigotry and cultural hatred and, to be honest, is identical to the behaviour of the zealous religious leaders.

Take drawing off JJ's site, open in PS, adjust curves to pick out the lines and fade pencil squiggles. Print at 10% opacity, ink by hand and scan in at 600dpi grayscale. Save as PSD then open in Adobe Streamline. Convert to ART and save as an AI, open in Illustrator, fix any line problems and export as TIFF into PS. Select black colours, invert selection to delete everything but lineart. Lock layer and colour each area in a new layer underneath the lineart. Using the inked version, plot where shadows go in pencil, then use that as a guide with the pen tool and drop the selections brightness by 25 twice.
Then you look at your pencilled/inked paper and scan that in,adjust curves, stick on a surface blur, set layer to overlay, stick a flat colour lightish blue underneath, set that to darken and use the brush tool to roughly fill in a layer under that in the colours. Once finished, just play with gradients until you get one you like.
Turns out that the picture you see up there was actually a byproduct of what I was actually doing. Came out far better though.

A bit simpler:
Open in PS, adjust levels/curves till nice and solid B&W, use the Magic Wand or any cut out tool to select an area to be coloured, make a new layer, on this layer use the paint tool to put a colour swash down in this selected shape, slightly blur it to mush edges, and use a layer effect such as Overlay or Multiply to add the colour to the background, continue in this fashion until it is all coloured in, then use the Picker set to Auto Select Layer to choose each section and the Dodge and Burn tools to add shades to the block colours. Finally, take the original background, duplicate it, and move it up the layers over everything you've done so far and use Darken or similar to make the inked edges solid black again.

Open in PS, adjust levels/curves till nice and solid B&W, use the Magic Wand or any cut out tool to select an area to be coloured, make a new layer, on this layer use the paint tool to put a colour swash down in this selected shape, slightly blur it to mush edges, and use a layer effect such as Overlay or Multiply to add the colour to the background, continue in this fashion until it is all coloured in, then use the Picker set to Auto Select Layer to choose each section and the Dodge and Burn tools to add shades to the block colours. Finally, take the original background, duplicate it, and move it up the layers over everything you've done so far and use Darken or similar to make the inked edges solid black again.
