Agreed. I heard an interview of him on NPR several months back where he said anyone who reads his book (The God Delusion) who was religious would finish the book an athiest, guaranteed.
Naturally I grabbed a copy, intending to read it and then give it to my very religious friends to test this claim. Got about 70 pages in and tossed it away. What rubbish. He has this attitude that only athiests are smart. If you're religious, you're a moron. If you're an agnostic, you're a moron who's also a chicken because you won't stake a claim one way or another. I know plenty of very religious people that are also quite intelligent - to paint all non-athiests as idiots is. . well. . idiotic. I don't have the time or the patience for this joker.
