The Root of All Evil?
The God Delusion
The God Delusion explores the unproven beliefs that are treated
as factual by many religions and the extremes to which some
followers have ... taken them. Dawkins opens the programme
by describing the "would-be murderers .. who want to kill you
and me, and themselves, because they're motivated by what they
think is the highest ideal." Dawkins argues that "the process of
non-thinking called faith" is not a way of understanding the
world, but instead stands in fundamental opposition to modern
science and the scientific method, and is divisive and
dangerous.
The Root of All Evil? is a television documentary, written and
presented by Richard Dawkins, in which he argues that the world
would be better off without religion. The documentary was first
broadcast in January 2006, in the form of two 45-minute episodes
(excluding advertisement breaks), on Channel 4 in the UK.
