I did the same thing with The God Delusion. After I read that, I read Life After Death by Dinesh D'Souza. In the beginning he attacks Dawkins saying he had no scientific evidence for his conclusions although, in fact, Dawkins presented a lot of hard science as he also did in The Greatest Show on Earth.

Also D'Souza promised to present hard science proving there was life after death etc. But the only "science" offered was the near death experience some people have and he did not in any way use that to prove there is an afterlife.

Conclusion: Game, set and match to Dawkins.
