While brousing the TV listings for Christmas, I noticed an interesting program on Channel 4 “The trouble with Atheism”, on the 18th December, at 8pm.
Here is the blurb:
Far from being an antidote to religious fundamentalism, Rod Liddle sees 21st century atheism as sharing many characteristics with the very belief systems it opposes. As he argues in this authored film, those that turn to atheism for a rational, logical and moderate approach to modern problems are in for a shock; atheism too has its high priests, dogmas and beliefs as much as any fundamentalist religion.
Looks like one of the more interesting programs to watch over the Christmas period.
I could say more, but maybe I will wait until I have watched the program.
Thanks for the heads up. Will you be taping this? I look forward to watching this, although not sure if I can catch it airing tonight.
I forgot to record it, but it is being repeated early Friday morning. It was interesting … see separate post.
