Best Last Supersition polemics

I havent' read the The Last Supersition, But I looked it up on goodread and I found some quotes which i think are pretty clever. What do you think is the best polemic in the book? I like this one so far:
“Dawkins, as I have said, tells us that there is “absolutely no reason” to think that the Unmoved Mover, First Cause, etc. is omnipotent, omniscient, good, and so forth. Perhaps what he meant to say was “absolutely no reason, apart from the many thousands of pages of detailed philosophical argumentation for this conclusion that have been produced over the centuries by thinkers of genius, and which I am not going to bother trying to answer.” So, a slip of the pen, perhaps.”
It really exposed Dawkins for the smugs, arrogant fraud he is.

Re: Best Last Supersition polemics

I have the book, but choosing "the best polemic" is hard for me. I think the whole book is good because of its philosophical argumentation, and humor mixed with a harsh tone against the "New Atheists."
