Attack of the Theocrats!
Comment 4 by esuther
One way it could go is that Richard Freakin' Dawkins, being the true scientist he is, upon encountering Mr. Deity, would be compelled by the evidence of his own eyes to actually consider changing his mind. Astonished, the Professor immediately launches into a series of rather pointed and embarrassing questions for Mr. Deity, to better determine if he truly fits the bill as the "God" of the bible. Mr. Deity responds to these inquiries with his usual hilarious blustering and backpedaling, of course. His frustration mounts as Dawkins continues to expose his numerous hypocrisies, so he casts Dawkins into Hell... and then Mr. Deity "wakes up" in a cold sweat from his nightmare (perhaps staring into an amused frown on Lucy's pretty face).
I'll bet dollars to donuts that Brian somehow weaves-in Richard's most famous quotation:
Mr. Deity: "Ummm.... Richard, is it? Did you really write these things about me?"
