Dawkins on TCR
Check out Richard Dawkins Net for the video of Dawkins on The Colbert Report last night.
Given that Colbert is a Catholic - and insists on winning ;-) - I think Dawkins handled it very well - especially compared to some who've been on TCR!
I love him nailing that Darwinian evolution is the exact opposite of random chance.
Two more highlights:
"Let's say your book is intelligently designed--"
"It is, by the way."
"Life is a very special thing. It starts naturally, and then increases in complexity by slow, natural degrees: that's Darwinian natural selection--"
"That's cause God breathed into it."
"Oh no - that is at best a superfluous hypothesis, and a worst a highly unparsimonious one."
"Do both of those mean you surrender?"
