Dawkins and Thomson at American Atheist convention 2009
There are two new videos posted at Richard Dawkins.Net which are noteworthy, the
first is that of Dawkins himself and the second by Andy Thomson, both of which
talk about religion at the American Atheist convention 2009. Dawkins
interestingly comments on the ‘Expelled: No Intelligence allowed’ documentary,
suggesting as he has always maintained that he does not enter into discussions
with religious people for the simple reason it then puts their ideology at the
same level as a scientific argument. Dawkins notes that if he knew what the
documentary was really about, being that of yet more religious double talk, then
he would have never agreed to take part. The talk is a refreshing change from
earlier ones; it is addressed to already ‘atheists’ so a new set of things are
discussed.
Andy Thomson discusses the history of our species and the reasons to why we can
believe in God. A funny and interesting look at the sorts of evidence that the
Dawkins argument relies upon in order to make his conclusions, based on the
evolutionary theory and current research. Well worth a watch.
