Richard Dawkins vs theists who will finally give in?

When God told the Jews it is a Mitzvot (good Deed) to question, I can picture him telling Christ "But that Richard Dawkins,oy is he going to give me trouble."

Update:

To Ladyren: I agree with you, outside of Romulus Linney(a playwright) and William Safire (dec)(Columnist for the New York Times) He (Dawkins) is the best writer I have ever encountered.

    Really?

    The atheists may make their argument against the Divine; however, they must replace the Divine with something quite extraordinary and of better value.

    The theist must make their argument against science; and replace science with something of better value.

    They should be allowed twenty minutes.

    A coin toss sets the first presenter.

    I assure you , with the RIght Theist in play, if the theist wins the toss; the atheist will concede before the end of the first twenty minutes.

    Dawkins speaks from a scientific point of view, using logic, reason and science.

    If by theist you mean fundamentalistic Christians, who take the bible as literal truth, well, there are fewer and fewer of those types around. Christianity for many is easily compatible with science. And there is not one single definition of god that everyone agrees on.

    Dawkins in a huge talent, and writes extremely well. He has no reason to "give in".

    Take the Bible for what it is.... the musings, legends, folk lore of a tribe of ancient peoples, long before any science was known. That is what most Christians do. Only the true fundies ramble on about the bible this and the bible that. It was no more any accurate than anything else many ancient peoples wrote.
