Dawkins
Dawkins is quoted in the article. Dawkins is a great science writer/popularizer, though he really shouldn't be quoted even in science articles except for introductory material. He is a researcher, as we are, not a scientist per se. He hates religion. Doesn't really have any qualifications there at all particularly. Quoting him is like Quoting Osama bin Ladin on the Fed monetary policy or something. Bizarre IMO.
