I know that Richard Dawkins exists. How else could Parker and Stone do an episode of South Park where Dawkins falls in love and has hot monkey sex with Mr. Garrison.

If Hugh Everett's "many worlds" interpretation of quantum mechanics is correct, Dawkin's may the Pope in some universe.

very clever...
To prove Dawkins existed, the author would have to have
followed him from birth to the present moment, and watched
every thing he did( yeah,even that), and he would have to
have testimony from everyone who says, "yeah, that's Dawkins".
He would have had to see the birth certificate made, etc.
But then, who's to say the observer is a victim of a cruel
joke, that the Dawkins is just a person created to meet
the need to have a Dawkins. Sort, of like the people on
the "Truman Show?" So the observer would need to have the
faith, that all he saw was true in the first place....how
could be prove that?
Well, the just shall live by faith....Sorry about that
Mr. Dawkins..

Dawkins included.

1. Nothing Exists.2. Granting something to exist, its nature would be unknowable given that ultimately, its position in existence could not be understood.
3. Granting something to exist and that you could understand it, you couldn't explain it to someone else. There simply aren't enough words.

Then one ought to conclude that only mass hysteria has convinced so many people otherwise.
It doesn't matters for me if Dawkins exits but the books with a may be not existing author Dawkins are quite interesting.

That's the problem with sarcastic arguments- they don't work against analogous, opposing viewpoints unless one intends to disparage both sides (and not just one or the other).
Perhaps science and religion are not analogous, but that point is very well-implied from the opening paragraph and throughout...
If we accept this, then the author has attacked science and religion equally. If we don't, then he has made no point whatsoever by being sarcastic.
