  • thank you very mucho for the upload!

  • @jalopez270668 Thanks, my pleasure.

  • I have to say the combination of Dawkins, Hitchens, and Grayling is practically a dream team. Toss in Sam Harris, Dan Barker or Matt Dillahunty and it's game over.

  • @fusedchromosome 'Dream team'? more like a theists nightmare :)

  • a sad indictment of american culture that we never have anything like this on TV.

  • @bethnor Thank heavens for Youtube :)

see all

  • @bethnor consider it added to the countless other indictments on this topic

  • Neil and Carl would complete this circle and the whole universe would behold.

  • dawkins = daniel radcliff

  • @OpethNation not to mention that in his youth, hitchens life practically revolved around debating at oxford and speaking at rallys.

  • @redryan20000 of course, dawkins is a biologist and hitchens was a journalist.

  • I feel like, given the opportunity of having such outstanding speakers together, they could have made their cases more directed to what is actually harmful about religion, but instead they seem to generalize and sometimes border on the question of existence. Of course, they still made very strong cases and I would like to see how the other panelists countered it.

  • @bethnor Who still watches TV?

  • it's funny watching how much better hitchens is at speaking and arguing than dawkins

  • @amers963 ... same.

  • @whysshitsocrazy ..... LOL
