I just found this Intelligence Squared U.S. debate on NPR.


The "Yes" side: A.C. Grayling and Matthew Chapman
The "No" side: Dinesh D'Souza and David Wolpe

Conversation on the TED group on LinkedIn: "How would you teach a child about Christianity without denying evolution?"

I came across this discussion thread today. It's laughable how any time a question like this is asked in a forum, it becomes a pissing match between atheists/agnostics and believers. My favorite phrase from this discussion is "religious brain disease."
