Why does everyone find it so bizarre that Dawkins mentions God or religion when explaining evolution? It is the reason so many people don't accept evolution.
I also think it's justified to say that it is not God at work in the "squalor and suffering of nature," as this was the part of Darwin's message that made it so revolutionary, that nature is not the way it is because of direct interference by a central authority.
