And what would you do with Dawkins? How does one not tolerate the free expression by a scientist on any topic he wants to talk about?

To tolerate Dawkins means to put up with his free expression without contradiction. If the Royal Society is going to respond to the unscientific claims of the creationists, it should also respond to the unscientific claims of Dawkins.

Dawkins isn't trying to wedge his atheistic claims into the actual methodology of science, or into school science curricula. That's the primary difference.
