Comment #368197 by Richard Dawkins
There is no need to be an appeaser in any way, I think, but simply and clearly and unambiguously state that science and faith are incompatible when asked. Individuals can make their own accommodation between religion and science if they want to, but that accommodation should be open to ridicule if publicly expressed. Public expressions of any other type of belief, such as artistic judgements, are open to such treatment.
