for those who were involved in the British and Proud and God Delusion threads, Richard Dawkins has a two part documentary series on Monday nights at 8pm starting next week.

should make interesting viewing and an interesting thread here afterwards

if it's half as good as "A Brief history of Atheism" it'll be top class telly

Cheers Adam - going in to Sky+ now...

Thanks for that but I am not sure I beleive Dawkins exists.

What would you reckon the probability of Richard Dawkins becoming the next pope? I'm guessing about 10,000,000:1.

Worth a flutter then....

I think they draw the line with Atheists..a nazi is one thing but you have to believe in God

 ;bump;

I knew you were going to bump the thread, my tea leaves told me.

I am reading his book now.
which chanel?

Haven't read Dawkins but this site/movie will be of interest to the atheists (& maybe some open minded christians) amongst us, part one in particular.

I've looked into some of the facts presented and it seems plausible enough.

Which book?

Excellent! Loved the dowsers. The guy who gets told by god where the water is said that when he got it wrong during a proper double blind trial it was 'god was having a joke'. ::)...what chance does anyone have against that lol

the god delusion


thanks just caught the last 30 mins.

People are scary....

I missed it. Hope it is repeated... Will keep a look out on BBC 3 or one of the many others....

I loved the look on Dawkins face when he was sitting watching the medium .  I personally don't believe in any form of belief system or religion almost as much as the belivers believe ( if that makes any sense  :D ).  If you really want to read something and have a laugh, read the book 'The Secret' . Check out Wikipedia for the Secret. 

 I am still amazed that in the year 2007 we still believe in anything we can't actually see.  Obviously each Country have their individual beliefs and many developing nations are ruled by these beliefs ( or religions ), but it is hard for a non believer to understand the thought processes of someone who has 100% faith. If science ever develops a technique to read a person mind, I would love to step inside a persons mind who has complete faith and see their thoughts.

C4 make their programs available online for 2 weeks i think after they have aired, 4OD i think it's called, you download a small program.

wasn't too keen on the show..it didn't seem to have any real flow to it but more of a "look how stupid these guys are". I agree with him but this could have been done better me thinks.

Not as polished or as in-depth as the 'Root of All Evil' that he did previously.  Probably to do with the subject matter, and the fact he's talking to fruit cakes.

lol..yeah

Hmm Sark, you would find that most those people's thoughts are more preocuppied with fear of not believeign and therefore going to hell, rather then thinking of their belief per se....

True, I am probably going to Hell then.  I am more worried about the heat down there than anything, I hate it when it is too hot. Hopefully I can get an indoor job that has air conditioning if I end up down there. Robert Johnson is good so at least I will be able to chat with him and learn the guitar properly  :)

Stevie Vai will be there aswell if the Crossroads movie is anything to go by (and I believe it is)

Yep, I should have two really good guitar teachers   :D
