No, I'm not a lawyer but I can read a dictionary.

publish

Claiming that Dawkins would ban religion is false and defamatory and you have written it publicly. It is therefore libel. You really think people are too stupid to see through your bluster. It is amazing.

Favoring stamping out religion seems like a ban that is effective. Granted I don't know how Dawkins proposes to carry out his agenda. Maybe he just wants the government to turn schools into brain washings institutions, and reach the minds and hearts of the young and thereby cause religion to die a natural death. He seems annoyed about the influence religious parents have on their young. How might that influence be "stamped out?" Why don't you ask him how he proposes to go about implementation?

Dawkin seems like an extremist. I think extremists usually tend to spoiliate the public square.

By the way expression of opinion are not libelous per se.
