which is his mistake, as he tries to lump intelligent design (which I believe, although should obviously not be taught in school as it's a belief and not science) and creationism into the same thing.

Richard Dawkins on militant atheism | Video on TED.com


he's enfuriating to watch. So if you believe what you've been saying, you should take to the streets and fight the fundamentalist atheism being proposed by people like this guy.

edit: check out 22:00ish...his references of tooth fairy and teapots are erroneous, as tooth fairies and teapots around saturn are irrelevant to the actual mystery of existence, and therefore apples and oranges. Shrug. I do like his "non-theist" definition however.
