Dawkins’s assertion that genes (which by his own admission are not conscious, know nothing of purpose, and do not look ahead) are attempting through psychological manipulation to change our brains for their own purposes is incredible. No less amazing is how genes learned psychological techniques—another mystery that Dawkins has not explained. This is unsupported theory, undemonstrated, unproved, and unreliable, like so much of what Dawkins dares to pronounce as scientifically established truth. In fact, it is sheer speculation used as cover to support his atheism.
