Dawkins goes after people who use religion as an excuse to do wrong things.
However, I'm sure I'm not the only one who has noticed that atheist activists focus almost exclusively on attacking Christianity (and Christianity as practiced by white Europeans and Americans). They rarely if ever attack Islam or the various superstitions of Third World people, which suggests that their real hatred isn't religious belief or even religious fundamentalism, but western culture. Case in point: American Christians refusing to bake a cake for a homosexual couple is cause for rage and protest. Muslims stoning or beheading homosexuals is just cultural self-expression.
Must be a gap in the time warp continuum.
