I think he misses the point of what Professor Dawkins has been saying altogether. The problems in the Middle East, northern Africa, parts of Asia, and even much conflict in the U.S. can be traced back to indoctrination, and division along religious lines. Communism can even be seen as a religion in it's own right, with an unimpeachable dogma taken as holy writ by it's adherents.

I must admit I was made a bit uncomfortable by the reaction of the audience, but I think Professor Dawkins responses were measured and appropriate. It's tempting to heap upon believers some of the ridicule that many so readily disseminate, but what kind of Darwinian moral fiber would that show?
