💥Join us on our Journey to 1 Million Subscribers💥 Richard Dawkins is a British evolutionary biologist and author. His 1976 book The Selfish Gene popularised the gene-centered view of evolution, as well as coining the term meme. Dawkins is a vocal atheist and is often referred to as one of the four horsemen of the New Atheism movement which began to gain traction in the mid-2000s, catalysed in large part by Dawkins' 2006 book, The God Delusion. #science #god #interview SPONSORED BY GiveSendGo - Go to https://www.GiveSendGo.com/ to check out a better alternative to crowdfunding.
