tatripp: "he seems like he leads a sad life." Clicking on tatripps profile, I see he lists himself as "Religion: Christian" and "Politics: Conservative".
While I'm no Dawkins fanboy, I think I see what`s happened here...

tatripp: "he seems like he leads a sad life."
Have you seen his life? He's world-famous, has written best-selling books, and is married to a hot actress (Lalla Ward, who played Romana, one of the Doctor`s companions on "Doctor Who"). He was introduced to her by a mutual friend, Douglas Adams. You know, the guy who wrote "The Hitchhiker`s Guide to the Galaxy" (among other things)? Dawkins flies all over the world giving talks, having fascinating debates, meeting famous and interesting people, and working on various projects.
If that`s a "sad life", sign me up for one of those!

I read a good part of The God Delusion. It was so full of vitriol, bad arguments and plainly untrue assertions I couldn't finish it.
What surprises me is that he`s so esteemed by people who like to think of themselves as rational.
