Philosophy, Logic, Science v. Religion

After the alleged journalistic attack on Richard Dawkins by the makers of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed (formerly, Crossroads), he's riled himself up and he's ready to go...to America. Now, I can sympathise; I'm a self-confessed atheist after reading his latest book, and I've come to the US to study, meaning I'm surrounded by Mormons, evangelicals, catholics, creationists - you name it; Arizona has it. Not only have my surroundings made me grow to appreciate the religious diversity we have in Britain, but I'm struggling to effectively find voice and convert the believers. And so, to Professor Dawkins: America needs you.
