The Selfish Gene was a pretty decent book. I do wish he'd stopped there so that I could remember him fondly

I am reminded of the joke about how a Dawkins tweet is like an episode of Game of Thrones (I’m assuming you’ve heard the punchline already)

“Q: How is a RD tweet like an episode of GoT? A: It has 240 characters and something unspeakably awful happens”

The lack of self-skepticism and reflection by that group is so disheartening because that’s what I *thought* the skeptic movement was about...

Right? I'd have thought that skepticism, if applied honestly, needs to be directed as much towards one's own beliefs as toward others

I feel like I should say that I corresponded with him years ago and he was very gracious; he had no reason to be (he signed a book at that I gave as a gift; I like his writing). So I am genuinely sad and my main thought is "There but for the grace of God..."

My opinions about Dawkins is — he is good at writing about evolutionary biology.
But he’s also a 79 year old child of landed gentry. So his achievements aren’t impressive given the context — personally I think he’s underachieved.
I don’t expect deep critical insights from him

I’m being a bit harsh, though it is very unfortunate. He’s a man who’s never once had to question his privilege and was born into aristocracy. These ideas are of course going to be difficult for him, as it challenges the foundations of his self.
