- Richard Dawkins, of course,
is the quintessential face
of atheism today.
He's announced a long time
ago that he will not debate
Christians who are scientists anymore,
because they really don't know anything.
They don't know anything about science,
and so therefore, he's
not gonna waste his time.
Of course, that's totally not true.
- [Woman] They have the same degrees--
- Exactly.
- [Woman] --went to the same colleges.
- Same P's and H's and
D's behind their name
as the other ones do.
So, once again, it always boils down
to philosophy not science.
Everybody remember that.
It's always the philosophy
never the science.
Well, he's being interviewed
by a Roman Catholic priest.
And so the Roman Catholic priests asks him
about the science part of it,
why he isn't debating Christians anymore,
and he responds similar
to what I just told you
only he says, and he says,
most Christians not only don't
know anything about science,
but they don't really know anything
about their Bible either.
Well, that's kinda true
in many ways, okay?
Can't argue with that point of it.
- [Woman] No, we believe that.
- You're right.
And so he goes on to say,
So I won't have a discussion with them
because they don't even
know what their Bible says.
He says too many Christians
don't even know the first four--
can't even tell you the first four books
of the New Testament.
And GeorgeBarna.org, his polling,
Christian pollster has bore that fact out.
I have people that are related to me,
that are very close to me
that say they're believers,
and you ask them to name
the first four books,
they throw in some reindeer
in the midst of it.
They don't even know,
really, the first four books.
So anyway, continuing the conversation,
and so the Roman Catholic priest says,
so you won't discuss this with them
because they really
don't know their Bible?
No.
And he says, Can I ask
you a question, sir?
And he says, Yeah.
Isn't your favorite book Origin of Species
by Charles Darwin?
Isn't that your favorite book?
He says, Yes, oh yes!
That's been my favorite book
even when I was a child.
Even before I was a scientist
that was my favorite book.
And he says, Can you tell us, sir,
what is the original name
of the Origin of Species?
And Dawkins goes, Oh yeah,
yeah, that's very easy.
It's Origin of Species or the um,
oh God, oh God, momma God.
Oh God, oh God.
For five minutes he calls out on God.
He must call out on God
about eight to 10 times.
Oh God, oh God.
See Preservation of the
Races and the Favorite--
Oh God, so oh God, God.
You gotta hear the clip.
It's just hilarious clip,
because this atheist
calls out on God, I
don't know how many times
in trying to remember.
Of course the Roman Catholic
priest got his point across.
What you won't discuss with them,
because they don't know
what their Bible says,
you don't even know the original
name of your favorite book.
