Religious believers will have the last laugh, if for no other reason than they will still be around, merrily reproducing, long after the liberal atheist evolutionists have extincted themselves through contraception, abortion, gay marriage, and euthanasia.That is a splendid piece of irony: If Dawkins is right, the the forces he believes in will favor the survival of the people who think he's wrong!

Yes. It would seem that a belief in God confers a decisive evolutionary advantage on the believer over the non-believer. Religiously conservative people tend to reproduce. Liberal non-believers tend not to.
That has got to annoy Dawkins in his quieter moments.
