He can maybe nudge the equilibrium over a bit. I'm not sure he rails at the dimwits so much as religious teachings and their legal acceptance which may get somewhere. I mean:

"If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death"

"Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live"

are largely depreciated so these things can happen. Maybe death to infidels and apostates will go next.

It was Maynard-Smith and not Dawkins who introduced ESS.

Contrary to popular belief, Dawkins has never produced original research. He is a popular science writer, who synthesises recent discoveries in the field of evolutionary biology into an understandable narrative for the layperson (albeit with extensive commentary on the non-existence of God).

I'm not sure why you'd think that, it's clearly false. Dawkins publication record is easily available (it's even on Wikipedia) and he has most definitely published original research.
