Richard Dawkins on Religion

Watch this interview with Richard Dawkins, a major atheistic scientist from England.  Here how he thinks about religion and religious people.

The interview is in three parts.  Please avoid other episodes, as they will include some VERY vulgar language that will be uncensored.  I just have no other way to show this video.  : /

Check out this link.  Explore the map.  If you hit the "Add Map Labels" button, it will make a lot more sense.

Please explore the map, pick a location (it can be anywhere large or small) and respond to these questions:

1. What do you notice about the color patterns, and what broad conclusions do you draw from this information?


2. What events or circumstances do you think has caused or contributed to this situation?


3. Is this a problem?  Should/can anything be done about this?  Why or why not?



One sentence answers are not acceptable. 

Here is the story.  We will be doing the questions in class tomorrow, so don't worry about answering them now.

Here it is.  Sorry I am late putting it up.  Do your best to finish reading it by class tomorrow.

Is there such a thing as historical guilt? What responsibilities do we hold in dealing with the mistakes of the past?  How long does this last?  What do you think should be done in this situation?
