I found the Q&A session cringeworthy.
Dawkins, jetlagged by his own admission, seemed almost bored with Pell. And why wouldn't he be? Pell just wasn't up to challenge.
The highlight, if there was one, occurred when Pell blurted out something about evolution and randomness. He then asked Dawkins if he was able to explain why evolution wasn't random. Dawkins, like the professor addressing a feeble minded student; "of course I can, it's my life's work".
I think the Australian god bothering classes could have come up with a more worthy opponent for RD.
Cheers
