1. Richard Dawkins on Hardtalk

Now a comment on the content.

What I got out of the interview is that Dawkins would be happy with the major religions if they were considered with the same validity as the other thousands of other beliefs out there.

Is this what others heard?

Because I am new to his work, though not his beliefs, can someone point me in the right direction to find out more.

I can answer my own question. From the BBC website about HARDtalk:

'The half hour interview is the result of detailed research and in-depth investigations.'

It appears that this was not done!

A good interview for people who are just getting to know about Dawkins' work.

The interview was done in the style that Hardtalk advertises.

Why expect anything else?
