The Enemies of Reason, Part 1.

Part 2 is not out yet, but anyway.

How do people feel he approached the subject?

But i'll get back you on the subject.

Some say The Root of All Evil? was too harsh in its presentation of religion and generally polemic (though how anyone can see Dawkins as anything less than a poet is beyond me).

This series will take a more easy, relaxed and in-depth approach. I thought it was very well done and eagerly await the next episode. A+.

Sometimes a cigar...
Dammit, it's google video. For some reason google videos stop loading for me arbitrarily through.
...is just a cigar.

My computer is having a few problems right now with loading movies so I was only able to see about 45 seconds in before it stopped. So far it looks good, I can't wait to see the rest of it.

Okay, I watched it.


I'll be the first to admit that I'm a little superstitious. razz And that some of it kind of pissed me off.

The spiritualism church had me cracking up, though.

I missed part 2 sad

Must... find... video...

I just watched this video...it was funny at times, and awesome the rest of the time. I could have sworn I saw, at one point, Dawkins manifesting a physical blade from pure reason and logic, and stabbing some guy in the neck with it. Hardcore.

Did anyone else notice as well how much the explanation of cold reading is almost exactly like how South Park depicted John Edward, the "Crossing Over" guy? ("I'm getting an A...a B? C? D? E F G H I J K L...")

Dawkins' is a very intelligent man. I don't consider him a leader or speaker for Atheism, but I love what he has to say and what he does.

He's devilishly handsome, too.

Unf!

I'd have his man-babies.

Also, Deepak Chopra claims Hillary Clinton as one of his clients?

If I wasn't voting for Barack Obama before, I am now.

I'd just like to say thanks for those links. I have to admit I'm on a bit of a Dawkins binge at the moment!

Oh, and Derren Brown for the win. I love that man, I swear! xd
