"Of course science is the best way to do bad things, because science is the best way to do ANYTHING." Perfect!!!

When mehdi said he believed in the winged horse, Richard was so disappointed in mehdi, he was ready to get up n leave.

I'm from a muslim family, and I'm eternally grateful to my parents for never pushing religion to me. Letting me discover how childish all the stories are on my own has been great. Anyone who forces religion onto their children are horrible people, and yes it should be considered child abuse.

I’m glad this is not my first or only impression of Mehdi.

“Religion answers a need, doesnt make it true”

When facts, reason, and logic threaten your entire belief system, you have a major problem.

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to understand how intelligent men hold on to their childhood indoctrinations. It’s psychologically fascinating.

" If you believe something without evidence then this will justify anything". R. Dawkins

These two gentlemen wouldn't be able to have this discussion in a Muslim country. That by itself tells you what kind of religion it is.

The only time I’ve seen Mehdi lose a debate.

"If the brain surgeons cant remove the tumours, why not let religion have a crack at it?"

“Those who can make you believe absurdities will make you commit atrocities”…

My guy put on a suit and went to a televised debate to tell us he believes Muhammad rode to heaven on a winged horse lmaooo

by far the best Dawkins interview

It is cruel to brain wash children into religion before you are old enough to decide if you want to be in religion

Love Dawkins.  Intelligence personified.

Mehdi is getting annoyed while riding his winged horse...Dawkins is so calm and collected.

16:02 I'm so disappointed in Mehdi for shifting the burden of proof like that. I didn't know he was a such a bullshitter

13:25 Dawkins should have corrected him by referring to him as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as he was a highly intelligent man with a grounded view of his own theology. If you look into his essays in college you will see him question his own religion's foundations.

Science asks questions that might never be answered;  religion preaches answers that may never be questioned.
