If I could speak with Richard Dawkins

In this ongoing series we imagine ourselves having a little chat with famed atheist, Richard Dawkins who, paradoxically, though consistently skating on thin ice, enjoys a legion of devoted followers. The professor describes God as… "arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully". Not wise. Let's see if we can make a dent in his polemics.
