Excuse me, Mr. Dawkins,
one,
or maybe two,
addition(s),
if you please:
You say "we are survival mechanisms."
which of course who could live to dispute?
but
from looks of me and you
and human natures more generally,
and bicamerally,
we are also health-thrival-relational
cooperative organisms
before we could ever get to all that
struggling with survivolution.
You call us, "Robot machines,
blindly programmed to preserve
the selfish molecules known as genes."
To which I heartily add my
Not so blindly
organically, interdependently programmed
for/of bicamerally ego/ecoconscious
cooperative win/win thrival
Bilateral co-empathic
intelligent health regenesis,
PolyCultural Design for 0-InteriorSoul
with interdependent health intent
in/exformed by +/-1 ExteriorZone
wealthy win/win resonance
v. pathological win/lose 0-sum chaotic
rabid anger/fear
narcissistic/paranoid
NotThisEgo/NotThatEco
co-dependent not-healthy/not-safe
disempowering dissonance
Trauma triggering
mere survival
robotic machinations.

I read an atheistic book and it almost validated my life -
My desires, feelings, ambitions and dreams;
It was as if a person was actually speaking to me,
As I entered into his world of god theory.
The author painted for me the right picture,
The scene I was born into of religion and stricture,
Such that after I read it I could handle my life,
And more comfortably cope with long-term strife.
The God Delusion is by Richard Dawkins 2006.

Okay, so most of us are either atheists or belong to some kind of religion, even if loosely. The religion likely demands that the convert love and respect the deity, therefore making the great majority of theists eutheists.
With that out of the way, has anyone ever even met a misotheist?
What's the deal with that?
We see the crossfire between christians and Good Prophet Dawkins followers on youtube comment threads, but you just don't hear about misotheists.
They believe in god, but hate and distrust him.
Christian misotheists are aware that they are going to hell under their understanding of the world, yet are resigned to this fate due to their personal moral code not to serve a god they believe is evil.
I don't think there are actually any misotheists. Just hipsters who might answer censuses with it, and list 'domestic partnership' as their marital status.
If there was one, though, I'd like to meet him. That's one badass motherf*cker.
*Footnote: I googled 'misotheist antonym' while writing this.

"Greetings To Subway"
A taste bud option determine upon a sub type like tips are a option
What type of bread do you prefer? Nearly all favor wheat or white
Six inches on the other hand a foot long
Equally distributed in halves and as an alternative, anything jampacked equitable to twelve inches
Turkey breast, Ham, beef steak, chicken breast
Meat slurry, concoction, tapioca clean processed foods much the same as crest
Tomatos, Jalapeno peppers, and lettuce
Three checks off the sub checklist
Terrified to cause errors sweating more than a sub loaded with onions
Lite mayonnaise comes into play; only the second day training and the training process is like hair waves
Oil, vinegar, mustard nearly completed the construction
A customer paces in, in three seconds don't lose consciousness to remember to say the introduction
("Greetings To Subway")
Two digit id, four digit password, sub 2, April, Katadra Dawkins, Anthony 'JaeRrah Dawkins I need you
Two five dollar foot long subs, two chocolate cookies, total is eighty four cent and Dwight
A twenty dollar bill is the payment and change is $7.16 cent
Boy what a foot long day

The province of delayed gratification
Poetry is dead.
There is now no appetite for deep reflection
In this far from limpid pool.
Abhorrent is meditation
To the present lords of all misrule.
Carpe diem once was for the nonce
Its writ now runs for aye.
Omnivorous science depredates
The very bones of our being.
Gradgrindery completely disintegrates
The very heart of our seeing.
Dawkins' dogma aims to destroy the spirit
And we are not the better for it.
Thus shrivels the soul and all that resides there,
Are we but creatures of accident,totally threadbare?
Until economic Armageddon strips us of cultural shame
Our choice is but to shroud the flame.
Depredation must needs be followed by reparation.
And then that rara avis,the phoenix anew
Will rise from the ashes,bright feathers in view.
We will illumine our world once more
When the bright flame of poetry will once again soar.
