The root of all evil??

Channel 4, from the UK, aired this no-holds barred 2-part series on religion, hosted by none other than Oxford Professor Richard Dawkins. The avowed athiest, in this show, challenges what he describes as 'a process of non-thinking called faith'. The videos are available as torrents via..

part 1 (mininova)
part 2 (mininova)

(If you arent familiar with torrents, download and use Azureus to get the videos..
or maybe if you ask me real nice I could get them to you on a CD... :) )

Anyway, the documentary is astounding.. but my fear is, as with all the debates regarding science and religion, it will be ineffective... for whatever Dawkins is trying to say. It is not going to change any minds coz, as always, those believers in science already know the facts.. and those with blind faith in their religions (over science) refuse to budge from the stand they have taken. And the in-betweens really don't care about the debate.. It's quite sad really.

Wish some US Network would have enough cojones to air the documentary in this country!

Anyway, I can go on a rant about it for ever.. I'll save y'all that and you can just do yourselves a favor and watch the documentary..

It doesn't matter what you believe in.. or don't believe in.. it is a must watch documentary.

And once you're done watching it and thinking... WOW... damn... scary... shieeeeet.. and all that... head on over to this page about the American Taliban and get scared even more.

Yup.. that's the country.. and the world we live in.
