Shadows of Doubt - Jonathan Miller's Brief History of Disbelief - BBC

Jonathan Miller visits the absent Twin Towers to consider the religious implications of 9/11 and meets Arthur Miller and the philosopher Colin McGinn. He searches for evidence of the first 'unbelievers' in Ancient Greece and examines some of the modern theories around why people have always tended to believe in mythology and magic.

  • "I do not believe in any religion. I will have nothing to do with immortality. We are miserable enough in this life without speculating upon another." --- Lord Byron

    "Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.... Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.... Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?.... Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?" --- Epicurus
