No, stu, it was not alright,   Context!          Shimrod....yes shimrod I have heard that Christian teaching at one point got platonised, and fixity of species was a belief in Victorian times , I think.    That has nothing to do with modern creation teaching which saw variety in organisms before Darwin wrote about it. However the info in the genes only causes reproduction after its kind, and you have not demonstrated that it can depart from the limits of the variations in the organism, to become anything else......however many generations you throw at it.    So if Dawkins has evidence to the contrary, by all means share it!
