BBC4 new series [final instalment last night] was entertainment at it's best - I thought. Richard Dawkins had me spellbound. Would love there to be a new series. Anyone agree? smile

Oh dear, we haven't had that here (Australia) I'll have to watch out for it. I've read Dawkins' 'The Greatest Show on Earth' and 'The God delusion'. The former taught me much much more about science than I ever learned at school, the the latter gave me some good arguments for when people come selling religion at the door (eg Mormons and JWs)

I think Dawkins is a good educator - he is much more than just a famous atheist.
