Famous Atheist and biologist Richard Dawkins debated Fox News host Bill O'Reilly about Christianity, The Bible, God, atheists and intelligent design. The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks down some highlights.

1. Why is Richard Dawkins wasting his time in this ridiculous show?
You can use logic in that studio. It doesn't work. And the audience is way past brain washed to consider anything Dawkins has to say.

2. For research on his second edition
of his children's book that he just published. He thought Bill O'Reilly might have some good insight on that perspective. I agree though, Richard Dawkins had recently said that he likes going into places that are challenging and maybe this type of audience gives him that opportunity.

3. Once again. I'm a big fan of Richard Dawkins, but
being interviewed on Fox News only lends them credibility. No scientist, liberal or otherwise free thinker should allow themselves to be interviewed by Fox News under any circumstances. Fox News should be completely boycotted.

4. Why would ANYONE with the ability to reason waste their
time going on O'Reilly's show?

I'd like to see BO field the questions, "Besides 'Thou shalt not kill', how many OTHER commandments can you name? Go ahead, run down the whole list!" Can those that covet continue to keep their TV gig?

5. LOL
arguing with Bill O is like trying to explain to a three year old why they cannot have a cookie before dinner.

6. What a dip sht.
There are NO atrocities in the name of Atheism,. (can you point to ANY?) too many to count in the name of god and Religion.

If you need to believe in fairytales to be moral, then you are indeed a weak minded fool.

And yes, why be interviewed by this twit (O'Reilly) who can not listen, and only lives to hear his own voice spouting nonsensical gibberish. The tides go,. .
