So, woke up and tuned in: just burma talk so far. I can't see anything mentioned in their 'daily schedule' either.

BBC Four, right?

2. Richard Dawkins on The Big Questions

I really wish they would stop making these programmes. They just end up putting me in a fit of depression for the rest of the day.

3. The Lava Lizard's Tale

I rarely comment, but can I just say that I thoroughly enjoyed that and thought it was fantastic.

4. Jumbo shrimp, creationist astronomy

Another vote for something open, information wants to be free!

5. Ayaan Hirsi Ali versus Timothy Garton Ash

Comment #98129 by gaving on December 13, 2007 at 6:01 am

As has been stated, I'd love to watch this but due to the poor use of this weird, unworkable proprietary format it doesn't look like I'm able to.

6. Highway to hysteria

right I think it's time to throw in the towel guys, game over.

Where has that video come from that Dawkins plays during his speech? The one where he tells McGrath to EFFF OFF!

I've never seen it before and can't find it on YouTube.

I knew that quote from Beyond Belief would eventually crop up in this sort of video!

As far as I know it's the uncut interview Richard did with him for the root of all evil:

Quotes of Note:

"Like computer viruses, successful mind viruses will tend to be hard for their victims to detect. If you are the victim of one, the chances are that you won't know it, and may even vigorously deny it."

Richard Dawkins

"It's been suggested that if the supernaturalists really had the powers they claim, they'd win the lottery every week. I prefer to point out that they could also win a Nobel Prize for discovering fundamental physical forces hitherto unknown to science."

Richard Dawkins

"The sermon was based on what he claimed was a well-known fact, that there were no Atheists in foxholes. I asked Jack what he thought of the sermon afterwards, and he said, "There's a Chaplain who never visited the front.""

Kurt Vonnegut

"Religion. It's given people hope in a world torn apart by religion."

Jon Stewart

"…the individual organism is a very important unit in the hierarchy of life…But however unitary and discrete an individual wolf or buffalo may be, the package is temporary and unique. (pp. 216-217)…"Abraham was left in no doubt that the future lay with his seed, not his individuality. God knew his Darwinism."

Richard Dawkins
