Richard Dawkins' book The God Delusion has been a run away best seller. It has stimulated global debate, not always very charitable, about whether Dawkins is right to say that it is probably the case that God does not exist. During this weekend philosophers Marianne Talbot and Stephen Law will discuss the debate from a philosophical point of view. What are Dawkins' arguments? Are they good arguments? Are they conclusive arguments? Where does the debate about God's existence stand now?

Customer Reviews
Well, just what you would expect
I was going to give my entire thought on this lecture, but I would only be repeating exactly what Mike said.
This is exactly what you would expect from someone who believes in the supernatural. A bent, deaf, and evading argument.
Thoughtful, reasoned
Really great dissection of Dawkin’s good delusion. The two lecturers break down Dawkins arguments logically, and argue for opposing sides.
