I wonder if atheism is a necessary qualification. If not, then I would suggest Francis Collins. Of course, he probably wouldn't want it, being too busy practicing science to want to spend all of his time explaining it. Wonder if Dawkins will decide to do any himself once he has some time on his hands.
Or indeed, would Francis Collins want to move to Oxford UK? Quite possibly not! I don't think P Z Myers would be a restful choice compared with Dawkins though! (He tells us he among others has been asked to apply.)
