He doesn't speak for me. He doesn't speak for atheism. He speaks for himself - that's kind of one of the results of atheism: no one gets to elevate their opinion because they get to claim they speak for a god.

Meanwhile, the pope DOES speak for Catholicism. And individual Catholics, whether they agree with him or not, are supporting him and his corrupt institution when they put money in the collection plate. I guess that bothers some of them so much that they need to make Dawkins the anti-pope and try to project their problems onto atheists.

Miserable fail, but at least we can laugh at them when they try.
