More on deluded Dawkins

CJ of Indistinct Union continues on Dawkins' Delusion:
On the dark side, the most obvious criticism is that the book is not so much an argument as a tirade. It’s like an adolescent smug temper tantrum. Dawkins refers on a number of occasions to “sophisticated theologians”–though (un?)remarkably he doesn’t cite any by name. Who are these ethereal beings lurking in the background of the text? Has he ever read any? And why would I trust his judgment–as opposed to experts on the subject–on who is and isn’t a sophisticated religious thinker?...

One day (God willing) we will societally actually get over these Boomers and their egos and their unique ability to see everything through the spectacle of the 1960s cultural wars. But not yet sadly.
