    It's not a matter of editing the footage to serve your own agenda, FFS the news channels do it constantly. It's the ridicule and criticism Dawkins makes of opponents that do exactly the same.
    Dawkins chooses to stick to a Materialist doctorine regardless of evidence that suggests otherwise (this is covered in the Science thread if i remember correctly). As Set said, Dawkins is just at the other end of a fundamentalist spectrum.
