Yes, I did rather enjoy hating it

i met Dawkins, a couple of years ago, and he was very pleasant... quite surprising really, not waspish at all, more your typical bumbling, bemused academic type... he basically had no idea what the feck was going on, which endeared him to me. But I reckon he's probably gone a bit native due to decades of vicious shit thrown at him by religious types.

I found a lot of Mein Kampf quite dull... "the banality of evil" I suppose covers it... monomaniacal writing does tend to bang on
