Strange and overrated biologist who thinks a God existing outside of time and space is a testable scientific theory governed by the laws of the observable universe. Founder of an ego cult congregating on his website richarddawkins.net which, surprisingly (!) features many pictures of the man himself. His fanatical Disciples consist mainly of an eclectic mix of rocket salad loving, lefty Hampstead set media types such as his wife or Ricky Gervaise, teenagers with mild Asperger's syndrome and angry, bearded letter of complaint writing types with discernable hygiene problems and a chip on their shoulders because the world refuses to recognise their genius, choosing instead to shun them due to their body odour.
He believes humans are innately moral because it's in the interest of our selfish genes which compete to replicate, but when we are bad it's because of religion.

Richard Dawkins - You see, competing with one another is part of Darwinism, but being nasty to one another..now that takes religion

Dawkin's Syndrome or Douche Syndrome is a condition suffered by sanctimonious wannabe scientists, who will moan about how the church/organised religion are disgusting for forcing their views down peoples throats and trying to make us all the same, and think they have the answers, but rather ironically do exactly the same thing with their atheism. They fail to realise that whilst there is a lot of evidence for atheism, it like religion, is just one view, in a world full of a million different views.
The kid who failed science thinks he's actually quite good at it now, because he's an atheist, and not a 'dumbass that believes in God'. He suffers from a case of Dawkin's Syndrome

A scientist infamous for being the most arrogant and biased intellectual in the world and largely for his devoted army of unintelligent fanboys, who will most likely vote down on this entry and all others that speak poorly of.
Richard Dawkins: "The crusades are a perfect example of how religion hurts the world."
Child: "But nearly all the crusaders hadn't even read the Bible. They were mostly in it to gain wealth, led by power-hungry popes who twisted religion for their advantage. They would've used other means to get people to do their bidding if religion didn't exist."
Richard Dawkins: "Nonsense. Atheists have never hurt anyone."
Child: "Oh. You must be forgetting Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong, two of the most infamous mass-murders and oppressive dictators in history. Don't worry, you've just got a less evolved mind."
Richard Dawkins: "But- but- The World Trade Centers! That happened because of religious teachings!"
Child: "Wow. One sour apple. One group. Let's just throw the baby out with the bath water. If one religion has malicious teachings, all religions must be evil. Riiiight..."
Richard Dawkins is a perfect example of why the dark ages came about. Arrogant and selfish men who made stuff up to get millions to do their bidding, while everyone else suffers (except rather than religion, he calls it "survival of the fittest").
Fortunately, Richard Dawkins is too fixed on destroying religion with twisted and made up facts to do anything else. Otherwise he'd be busy getting slavery reinstated, executing the disabled, and earning an honest living.

Wrote woefully out-of-date book about genetics called The Selfish Gene. Wrote several equally boring books. Has never actually done anything remotely important in his field of study, except come up with a really stupid concept called a "meme". This concept is, like phlogiston, or the aether, not particularly helpful and is in fact downright harmful in the field of studying culture. The field of memetics has yet to produce a single worthwhile hypothesis or theory.
Dickie Dorkins (Richard Dawkins) wrote a book called the God Delusion, and used his own pretend-friend delusion of memes to rationalize his way through the book. This is called "irony".

The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.

The defense mechanism that atheist use when people either refuse to listen to, or question their smug self superior ways by saying the person questioning them is delusional or close minded usually quoting the 16 year old girl minded richard dawkins.
When martin decided he didnt want to hear marsha crap out of her mouth about religion, marsha pulled the dawkins defense and dismissed him as delusional.
