“假设你是一个知识分子的骗子，无话可说，但有着在学术生活中取得成功的强烈野心，召集一群虔诚的弟子，让世界各地的学生在你的书页上涂上尊敬的黄色荧光笔。你会培养什么样的文学风格？当然不是一个清晰的问题，因为清晰的问题会暴露出你的内容不足。”

作为公众理解科学的教授，道金斯一直是伪科学和替代医学的批评者。他在1998年出版的《解开彩虹》一书中考虑了约翰 · 济慈的指责，即通过解释彩虹，艾萨克 · 牛顿削弱了它的美丽; 道金斯则支持相反的结论。他认为，深空、亿万年的生命进化、生物学和遗传学的微观工作机制，比“神话”和“伪科学”包含更多的美和奇迹。在约翰 · 戴蒙德去世后出版的《蛇油》一书中，道金斯写了一个前言，他断言替代医学是有害的，即使仅仅是因为它分散了病人对更成功的常规治疗的注意力，给了人们错误的希望。道金斯说: “没有替代医学。只有有效的药物和无效的药物。”道金斯在2007年4频道的电视电影《理性的敌人》中总结道，英国正被“迷信思想的流行”所笼罩。
