"The Unbelievers" Dawkins and Krauss V. World
#1
"The Unbelievers" Dawkins and Krauss V. World
Cheers everyone. My random youtube feed showed me a video that seemed interesting, and likely will be of interest to this audience. It's a discussion on a Canadian channel (radio?) with Lawrence Krauss and Richard Dawkins on a new movie they've made that's ... in the process of being released. I guess that process is more complicated than Hollywood lets on. But the interview is interesting enough - the interviewer seems like a fair arbiter, although I suspect he's no atheist. So enjoy that:

But also, keep an eye peeled for the release of "The Unbelievers." Maybe there's something we as a community can do to help get screenings in various areas.

The first link currently in the news section explains their distribution process a bit. Click that link if interested.
Religious but open minded about the arguments of atheists? You may have spent your whole life learning about the arguments for religion. May I present to you 10 segmented hours for the case against it?

Yes, an interesting conversation touching on many topics that come up perennially around here .. like weeds.

Indeed. The bigger news is certainly the new movie. Maybe it has a newer angle. It certainly has an interesting cast of characters that can help to popularize it. The youtube discussion isn't anything ground breaking, particularly if you've been following the dialogue for more than a few weeks.

I suppose I could directly host the trailer. Here's the link. At 1:36, they host the list of guest stars:

In addition to the expected Harris and Dennett, I'm particularly excited by Tim Minchin (genius musician) and Eddie Izzard (brilliant comedian).

I'm excited to see this.
