dre Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 I just thought it was sad. I felt sorry for her. Whenever a theres debate between people with doctrinal knowledge and emprical knowledge, it always ends seeming really awkward. That lady has an absolute and all encompassing belief in an ancient book... what does that even leave to debate? If Dawkins is gonna debate with magic sky god believers, he should at least pick one with some CPU speed that has a solid background in science as well. Quote I question things because I am human.

It was one of several interviews that Dawkins did for one of his shows. It was edited down for TV, of course...but if you managed to sit though all seven parts and remain sane...good on yah.

Dawkins doesn't debate the one's with a science background because they accept evolution, or they don't and he doesn't want to give them any of his time because it will look like they actually have a possible viewpoint.
