DURING HIS U.S. TOUR in 2008, Biologist and bestselling author Richard Dawkins met with some of the world's leading scientists to discuss topics such as Quantum Physics, Biology, Evolutionary Psychology, Science education, religion, atheism and more. This video brings you the fascinating unedited discussions between Richard Dawkins and Nobel Prize-winning Physicist Steven Weinberg, Physicist Lawrence Krauss, Biologist and blogger PZ Myers, and Evolutionary Psychologist David Buss.

From a public conversation at Stanford University to private conversations in Austin and Minneapolis, this collection offers a rare and inspirational opportunity to observe some of today's top scientists as they discuss some of the big issues without interruption.

  • at 3:12 , the "were are they all" statement, it could be that if there were aliens, radio waves or any other wave on the electro-magnetic spectrum will be reaching them 10*10 to the power of (whatever) years away, because of the distance they are away from us. so in there eyes (if they have them) we would be a smoldering lump of rock.

  • the thing is... a perspective of cosmos and maybe a multiverse makes us not small, but so absolutely damned important and our possibilities so endless. every single one of us. and that to compare with religions "purpose" of being arbitrarily judged and punished/rewarded, and not value our precious life and planet that is so rare...to say theres an afterlife just so you can destroy others and comfort yourself. its just so...wrong.

  • nice one!

  • I love how elegant the format of this kind of videotaped conversation is.

  • This is why I love youtube: richarddawkinsdotnet you are my hero.

  • Does anyone know where I can learn about cricks hypothetical alternate genome?

  • It has taken the earth this long to provide the answer's to our questions. 

  • @richarddawkinsdotnet hello,are you richard dawkings?

  • 1:06 maybe the dinosaurs were an advanced species. Can't you imagine a velociraptor wearing a leather jacket and driving a motorcycle 200 million years ago
