The Four Horsemen: Dawkins, Dennett, Harris, Hitchens (6/12)

On the 30th of September 2007, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens sat down for a first-of-its-kind, unmoderated 2-hour discussion, convened by RDFRS and filmed by Josh Timonen.

All four authors have recently received a large amount of media attention for their writings against religion - some positive, and some negative. In this conversation the group trades stories of the public's reaction to their recent books, their unexpected successes, criticisms and common misrepresentations. They discuss the tough questions about religion that face to world today, and propose new strategies for going forward.

No, intelienc eis not what makes us human. Its one of the things humans have. Otherwise Richard Dawkins would be more human than Sarah Palin. Thats not true.

I don't like Harris' point where he contends that an argument against the existence of god is that god didn't know about electricity etc., such an argument is weaker before the discovery of such phenomena, but there are so many arguments against the existence of god that could have been made in the past which seems to make them superior.
