Why Richard Dawkins?

Did he ever say anything about being interested in lifextension?

 

edit: He even made a video on bigthink where he called the Idea arrogant.

its way of thinking, cold blooded and pragmatic, is similar to people from here, plus he made a very good point : it's what most people think.

Richard Dawkins line of research is related to evolution, and currently only dedicated to philosophize about atheism and about religion (with and extreme anti-theist attitude). He is not linked to research related to longevity or cognitive enhancement.

He's not important (
for our cause).

he explained that everything is balanced, and if there is a surplus of resistance in one part it is balanced in others, so aging is the consequence of a low overall resistance wich accumulate damages over time

Up to date Dawkins have no important contribution with life-extention or cognitive enhancement. So i cannot consider him as a very important person for this comunity.

If by important you mean popular; we are talking about Most popular people for longecity fourm...

 

Dawkins is popular in the world of science, but i dont know if is he is one of the most popular people in this forum/community.

 

Anyway, this is just my opinion ;)
