Attack of the Theocrats!
I have seen the first two parts and I'm underwhelmed.
The sound didn't help, but it was OK.
No doubt I have been spoiled by seeing too many professional presenters interview RD. TF rambled.
TF was very speculative. RD kept the lid on it.
TF speculated about "group selection". Not good in a conversation with RD of all people unless you have a huge amount of new evidence ...
TF was speculating about the "evolution of religion". I would have thought a better interviewee would have been Dan Dennett for those questions. I want to hear RD on biological evolution and new atheism.
Do parts 3 & 4 get better?
