The Atheism Tapes (Aired on BBC but available on Google)

This is cross posted in Forum Community. My appologies. I thought them important. I'll accept any punishment meted out for my transgression.

In any event, I found the tapes simply outstanding. This post didn't garner any response in FC so I thought I would try here.

They are all about 30 minutes long.

Richard Dawkins
Colin Mcginn
Daniel Dennett
Denys Turner
Steven Weinberg

Other favorites of mine.

The Power of Faith (3 minutes)
Atheist (5 minutes)
Who wrote the Bible? (1 hour 40 minutes)

More are at www.infidelguy.com

The Root Of All Evil part 1 (Richard Dawkins) (50 minutes aprox)
The Root Of All Evil part 2 (Richard Dawkins) (47 minutes)

These last two are incomplete, I think, if anyone has better links for them let me know.

The Atheism Tapes are 6 of the interviews Jonathan Miller used in his "A Brief History of Disbelief" special on BBC, which is also very good if you can find it.
