Dawkins is a secular humanist, not a materialist. to wit: "Let me sum up Einsteinian religion in one more quotation from Einstein himself: "To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is a something that our mind cannot grasp and whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly and as a feeble reflection, this is religiousness. In this sense I am religious." -The God Delusion Ch 1
his beliefs are sprinkled throughout the book, but it is fair to say that he espouses some form of dualism plus unitarian christian morality.
The tone is mystical, but I doubt Dawkins is really a dualist.
He isn't, and if memory serves me right, he has made that quite clear many times.
