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.

Interesting chat, but so much goes unexamined. We need to think about meaning says Hitchens, yet all depth and meaning needs someone or something to mean it - without God life is redundant of meaning? Atheism can be consistent, but not when it tries to look for any semblance of meaning in life. A final note on the putative violence of religion and the peacefulness of atheism is that man writes his own morality without any idea of God. Communism carries the most skulls of this century.
Genesis 3 : 15 is where the moment that sin entered into the picture, word of the provision for sin was given. That provision for sin was already there but that was the first time that it was spoken of.
now I know you are a jester. not only do you not know anything about science or what evolution is about , you also have not idea what is or isn't in the bible or the interpretation of what is or isn't in the bible. Dude are for real?? Gen 3:15 God told Adam and eve of Jesus??? Man not even your fundamentalist brethren will agree with that. I thought i had missed something while i grew up being indoctrinated in the thrash peddled by those ignorant preachers.
Ask any Christian theologian and they will tell you that Gen 3 : 15 is the first mention of the Gospel. A Savior (God) born of a woman would crush the serpent's head. Ever since that time people wanted to know about that Messiah born of a woman until the day that He was born. The prophesy is significant enough for the kings of the east (the wise men) to come looking for Him when He was born.
You hardly have a clue of what Christian teaching is about.
Seekmosttoprophesy - are you really serious??? Don't you even see a problem if what you are saying is even true. God was already going to send Jesus before he created adam. So he created Adam and Eve to sin so he can send Jesus. How fucked up is that for a plan. If that God is supposed to be smarter than humans, he sure is doing a great deal to prove to us he is such an ass, if what you are saying is true. i dontbelieve this magic man in the bible stuff. but if i did, you just made me not to.
You didn't expect that God had a provision for us to make mistakes from the very beginning. That is not a deficiency of God that is your deficiency. God was there befor you.
"Real Christianity did not torture anyone.". Just as real islam does not promote killing of infidels, just like witches are not meant to hurt people in their sisterhood. Again, I accept that you want to have faith and my own belief is that science and faith do not belong in the same sphere. you can believe in Cristainity and the bible , ihave no problem with that. however, Keep your religion away from science class and stop trying to discredit science with myths.
Islam is not real because it is no more than 1400 years old.
Science is trying to catch up to where theology has been all the time. It is the Bible that for thousands of years has said the universe has been stretched out and science just now discovered that fact.
