10. Panel: Daniel Dennett, David Sloan Wilson, Jonathan Haidt, Michael Shermer - Beyond Belief 2007

This is from the Beyond Belief 2007 Conference, "Enlightenment 2.0." It is an excellent source of views on secularism, atheism, religion, and science. The lecturers are world renowned and their lectures here are incredible - how they manage to squeeze so much information into such concise presentations is incredible.

This video (along with all the others) is intended for educational purposes and has only been released here on YouTube so that it might reach a broad audience ever hungry for knowledge.

However, that being the case, a lot of people worked very hard to make these presentations possible. I am, of course, referring to the members of The Science Network who deserve full credit for this. If you enjoy these presentations, consider purchasing them on DVD (http://www.beyondbeliefdvd.com/servlet/StoreFront) or simply donating to this wonderful institution (http://thesciencenetwork.org/membership).

The Science Network (to my knowledge) owns the copyright to this material and should they ask me to remove it, I will.

Many thanks. Odd to hear Haidt, dismiss cognitive therapy as 'really hard work'. Surely anything worthwhile in terms of personal development proves to be, yes, hard work, but ultimately rewarding?
