Best Answer

Biology is absolutely a science, just like physics, chemistry, astronomy, medicine... And absolutely counts towards claims of being a scientist. Any field which can be broken down and understood by using the scientific method qualifies as a science, even though we do tend to draw a distinction between hard sciences (like physics) and soft sciences (like psychology)

What does Richard Dawkins believe about the soul?

Dawkins self identifies himself as an atheist and states in the opening chapter of "The God Delusion": "God is a delusion. ... Human thoughts and emotions emerge from exceedingly complex interconnections of physical entities within the brain. An atheist in this sense of philosophical naturalist is somebody who believes there is nothing beyond the natural, physical world, no supernatural creative intelligence lurking behind the observable universe, no soul that outlasts the body and no miracles - except in the sense of natural phenomena that we don't yet understand."
