Not really sure on that one if he would be breaking the law on saying that. But what would the complaint be and from whom? “World’s most outspoken atheist scientist, Richard Dawkins says to children in a public school that there is no need to invoke God to explain the wonders of the natural world.” How dare he bring his “religion of atheist” into our fine secular schools. I guess if he changes God to Allah, he might have Fundamentalist Christians agreeing with him.
