This is a talk given by Richard Dawkins at the Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, Virginia, last year while he was making the tours for his book The God Delusion. While I would recommend reading the book, the points made by Dawkins in this talk does elucidate some of the points he makes in his books and also answers some criticisms from the religious right on his stance. This is quite a long lecture (1.5 hours long), as there were a lot of questions and answers. Notice there were a lot of students from Liberty University challenging Dawkins. Liberty University is a institution founded by the late repugnant and despicable Jerry Faldwell who wanted to meld religious fundamentalism into young people's mind. I liked Dawkin's rebuttal to a few of them, especially the one where he urges students from Liberty University to "go to a real university".
