Attack of the Theocrats!
It was so frustrating to hear the same tired arguments from Lennox equally frustrating to hear Dawkins' responses to some of them. Sure Dawkins handled the argument of design of life quite well because he's spent his entire life studying and understanding the complexities of life but it seems he hasn't made an effort to catch himself up the other arguments theists usually make. I think prior to the next debate in which Dawkins participates he should get some material from Steven Weinberg (physicist), Steven Pinker (evolutionary psychologist), Bart Ehrman (scriptural critic), Robert Price (biblical scholar), Daniel Dennett (philosopher), Jared Diamond (anthropologist), etc. There is going to be no single person who is going to fully win this debate when it is addressed from a single discipline.
