    This video is Daniel Dennett giving an overview on his hypothesis on religions with respect to evolution and biology. It is quite fascinating.

    There are 5 parts, about 9 mins each, simply click on the next part on the right to proceed. I'd like to hear some thoughts on his remarks.

    Why do I even bother coming to check the boards when i'm as drunk and stoned as I currently am?

    I watch this and get back to ya tommorow afternoon, Riz.



    Impeccable typing, huh?

    Daniel Dennet is a pretty smart guy but he seriously under-states the harm that comes from religion, though last time I checked he was certainly coming around.

    Yeah, I realize this talk is simply an overview of the major points in one of his books. I like his approach though, slow and steady, logical. Between Dennet, Dawkins, and Harris, there is a triumvirate of approaches which all are weaved together to form one damn smart thesis.
