The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science
( http://richarddawkins.net ) presents: "Dialogue of Reason: Science and Faith in the Black Community."

A dialogue with Richard Dawkins, Anthony Pinn, Sikivu Hutchinson, Todd Stiefel and moderated by Mark Hatcher concerning the role of faith and science in the Black Community. Faith has traditionally played a significant role among African Americans, while science has been marginalized. It is time to confront the issues that have kept too many Blacks out of the halls of science and confined to the pews.

  • dawkins was interresting the rest were talking loads of giberish

  • Im runing out of dawkings material:(

  • I got the feeling that it was 4 against 1 here

  • Sometimes I feel that some of us may embrace religion because we feel some sense of inadequacies in such disciplines as scientific investigation. It perhaps expands the breadth of the meaning of "faith by convenience" (I can't recall the saying, verbatim). Still, as a Catholic by name, I ask why religion exist. Some conclusions: basic social needs, social order, some sense of purpose and fulfillment, make sense of our life and the universe, etc.

  • @bboybram this isn't really a debate. It's a discussion/conversation.

  • Well this was just incandescently enlightening and I enjoyed every minute of watching it! Such a big fan of Dawkins and his many works! I only wish I can meet him myself in the not too distant future. And anyone else spot the Pat Condell literature at the end on the desk? Another idol of mine!
