> I'm a nonbeliever myself I don't want to be part of any of those religions. But all of them have healthy, modern interpretations, and Dawkins really ought to at least put in some effort to look into it. As it is, he makes atheists look uneducated about the religions around them.

I understand the human tendency to belong in a group, or want to belong in a group. I don’t think any group that encourages religiosity in any way is conducive to modern civilization. I don’t think being “culturally” anything is acceptable either since part of the culture is regressive attitudes towards the “other”, and often times blind devotion to authority figures.
