But there absolutely is a right and a wrong side, because for most of his career Dawkins has primarily been opposing creationists. They are fundamentally wrong; and it's hard to argue with Dawkins's debating techniques when the creationists' fundamental technique is to lie.

Dawkins does not present his answers to "why religion" as definitively correct but merely as possible explanations. The only explanation he dismisses is "God exists", but frankly that explanation strikes me as fatuous nonsense too.
