I'm the Christ and have been tearing Dawkins to shreds on the internet (eleven years) and the other day for the first time I saw him being interviewed and he was actually charming. I'm still going to destroy him in hell.
Compared to Bill O’Riely’s interview, this was such an intelligent conversation. Mutual respect towards one another. She was calm, respectful and had such great questions. We need more interviews like this
This is a really good interview! The host is excellent. Courteous, well informed. She asks great questions and of course Richard Dawkins (as always) provides lucid answers. Very good.
She's just beautiful, the questions asked are elementary, i also have some deep questions far more deep than what she asked. But Richard just keeps smiling because of her beauty😅
The delusion that you speak of is why you're here if you believe in The Big Bang Theory there had to begin to have it end True Religion is one man world another man's trap I guess we'll all see in the end who's right or wrong
@Turnible Spencer Biologists also believe there are only 2 sexes. With variations of those due to medical anomalies. Science bites both ways. Science doesn't believe feeding a delusion helps the underlying symptom. Wish he had brought up that point on CNN. Science doesn't believe in Gender. Unfortunately most of CNN viewers do. It's nice to cherry pick a scientists opinion when it fits your narrative.
@William Burgess how many live have been placed in danger everytime bone spurs tweets and promotes violence at his cult rallies? How many lawsuits have Trump had to pay due to his dishonest criminal acts? It's like the dumb base picks and choose what meaning of the word truth means.
Jake M yes! No more white noise and braindead fill. In Asia there are ten hours a day of dull prerecorded shows that could be better spent challenging and reporting real news. No more African voices, Business Africa, African music,... we live in South East Asia for Christsakes...
@@chomo54andbabyaisha97 well, Republicans think windmill noise gives you cancer, and on top of that, they start wars and invade countries and get Americans killed, so they can make money.

@Christien du Preez DNC is running a spam campaign atm, you will most probably see the same on twitter - because it was the same during mid term election
Is it just me or was the title to this video kinda “click-baity”? He spoke about Trump for like 30 seconds while mainly speaking on his views on a range of topics from a more informed perspective for much longer...
I agree on the name of this video is a clickbait. Trump's name grabs attention these days so they mentioned that and ignored the other things he discussed.
Pretty standard for CNN from what I've seen. Often, the video title gives all the content you need to know, and then the video is 10 minutes of blathering.
People also think atheism means the opposite of worshipping god, which is worship the devil. If atheists don’t believe in a god then we don’t believe in his devil. I was a Christian for 46 years and then I applied logic to my thinking about religion and it’s impossible for me to go back!
Think back now and *honestly* answer this question: _WHY did it take you so damn long?_ I realized that "god" and "jesus christ" [along with all the other fable characters of that bible] were total bullshit *before I made my 12th cycle around our Sun.*
Penboy as 'god' I wish I would have woken up to this scam decades ago. It was a combination of current politics, research, watching intelligent videos on atheist and theist debating each other. But mainly, it was the disgusting behavior and the hypocrisy of people who call themselves Christian/Evangelical. (The pastors/preachers and the congregation themselves!)
Greg I would argue that any religious perspective should be negated. The only thing a religious perspective does is pit people against each other. "My God is better then your God." "I'm going to Heaven, your going to Hell." What we need is more compassion and understanding. We need to realize that there are different opinions and views. Just because they don't mesh with our specific look doesn't mean there wrong.
@DarxPhil 0 that argument is solid. However, it has a slight hangup. What is God? Is God some omnipresent being? Is it some sort of primordial ooze? I guess thats left up the eye of the beholder. Religion is like Politics. It always creates a lively debate.
Define God as to some it can be anything, then define how many genders exist It's dogmatic as the question itself comes with the intention of something as it's from the human mind and is a stance. Like saying The Jewish question is just a question Our mabey we live in a simulation but don't ponder more then that very limiting.
Richard Dawkins on Trump - "He doesn't take advice from anybody .... I mean he is like an infant." As ever Mr Dawkins is straight forward and to the point .- Just a follow-up comment on some of the replies below. Is name-calling and abuse really necessary? Those who do this, President Trump included, should understand that it only serves to highlight their own weakness, insecurity and ignorance. Understand that it is OK for people to have different opinions, that is how we as a people evolve and grow to be better.
CNN have finally fixed the earlier sound problem on this video of my interview this week with the excellent Bianca Nobilo. At least on my browser, however, you have to unmute the sound first. The interview comes to a strangely abrupt end, but never mind. facebook.com/111118513767299/videos/2747575598689335/
@@spork8655 Dawkins is one of the best in his field, and could rip anyone over even niche evolutionary topics, but I'm relatively sure other scientists (like me), are more well versed in our fields (mine being molecular genetics)
I most strongly agree. My rather simple understanding is the human need for continuity, of their genes, society, and way of life. And they find this in the ceremony and trappings of religion. The fear of the temporary nature of life and its' trappings is enormous.
Alot of people have just religion! But, the difference about a Christian is that person lives and practices the life every day. There is a big difference between a Christian and a person that's religious. I'm a Christian who faithfully lives for Jesus every day! I became a new creature when Jesus touched my life!
@@gladyslustgirdle3004 I'm a born again Christian who follows faithfully every day the teaches of the bible. There is a big difference between a Christian and a religious person. Your right, a religious person is trapped in ceremony, but a Christian is a follower of Jesus Christ who lives the life pure life that Jesus did with his help.
If Lord of the rings would be written 3000 years ago, it would be a religion today. We’d all be searching for Mordor like blind bats. That’s how these books are so irrelevant..
@Rick Nash preach it. The second coming supports incest and adultery and killing the children of your enemies. Praise trump devotee of the.prince of peace.
Physically, he's more resilient than Biden and Sanders. Morally, is subjective depending on your ideology. Mentally, he's at least more coherent than Biden.
...exactly like pedophile democrats proved after Trump won in 2016, lol Have you SEEN the videos of kid fucker democrats freaking out, man, I HOPE you do the same when Trump wins in 2020 and upload to yt
I thought the liberal left loves propping up children to power. They also love sexualizing them, and protecting their sexual abusers. In your sick minds if Trump was a literal infant you'd leave him in a room to die alone and neglected like y'all do to infants in Virginia. The left has become dogma not politics. Pathetic.
@@robertturi2264 First of all, he is *_against_* political correctness. The second is, he wants to control imigration. Both are important for any culture for survival.
@@robertturi2264 Now, if you do not mind me asking... democrats claim that Trump is racist. Do you have any proof of that claim? Also, they accuse him of being a fascist, which I find to be hillarious, but do you have any evidence of that?

Oh and the fact RU-vid logistics show that your only likes are from your own account and your other alternate accounts, it gets even more pathetic 😂
@TAX COW FARTS It takes guts to call an Oxford professor and a successful author and evolutionary biologist (he wrote the Selfish Gene for chrissakes) an "ignorant fool". I think if you're willing to throw words around randomly like that, then those words don't mean anything to you.
BREAKING NEWS: *Democrat's Dangerous Turn to Fascism* Chuck Schumer (D) publicly threatens Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh with violence, if they do not do what he wants. Schumer issued the death threats while speaking to an angry crowd of far left Antifa protesters, and it does bring into memory previous death threats from Maxine Waters (D)
The irony of this comment getting written by someone completely oblivious to the fact that he is EXACTLY the type of person that Dawkins is slamming in the same interview.
Cbricklyne You’re a mindless, vociferous oaf. How stupid do you have to be to make that many assumptions about who I am or what my ideological makeup is? There was no way to deduce any conclusions about my political position from the comment I made. You’re making logical leaps which are characteristic of the pseudo-intellectual you are, my friend.
@@uh6311 It's easy to deduce your political affiliation and position based on your opinion of CNN, and your general IGNORANCE of the fact that they have pieces like this ALL the time (which tells me that you don't, in fact watch CNN that regularly. Hhmm....I wonder why?) It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out; although I can clearly understand how someone of your....how shall we say?....cerebral "heft".....would think it would. Bonus round: Using "Big" words he clearly has no conception of how to use correctly in the service of trying to insult someone he clearly thinks is not an intellectual lightweight. ALSO tells me tons about you that you might not be aware of. ("vociferous"??? really? That was your 'Word of the Day' for today and you just felt you had to throw it in, whether it make grammatical sense or not, didn't you?) I suggest you stick to picking fights with people of your own (intellectual) size and spare yourself the embarrassment. Bonus round #2: Why do yo think it is that Dawkins is giving this interview on CNN and not on a place like Fox News?
@@draco9280 ya, he is being fake. Not like she's the only prepared host on a topic. Most are and it's the reason they do those jobs. Maybe he thinks he's got a shot??
@Rachel Ash imagine losing to Trump. I especially love the tard comment. So, here's the cool thing. You lost to a bunch of tards and it's going to happen again. How does that make you feel inside? Now go clean your fucking room.
After Englightement Age (separation of church and state) we got totalitarian state. After Millenial Age (separation of corporation and state) we'll have another totalitarian state.
@El Jay marxist state? Era? Haha. "Would be totalitarian"? That's some real stupid rhetoric you got there. So there are no other totalitarian countries? Even one trump gets lovely letters from? That's how dumb you are.
Damn. That girl is hot and a really good interviewer. I felt like I learned a lot from this video. Thank you Dawkins for your contribution to humanity.
@Trump 2020 Wow you are not to smart are you boy. If fact you just put it out there you are just another brain washed brain dead imbecile with a imaginary friend.
How fantastic to see Richard Dawkins .....and listen to his wisdom...I wish he would be soooo much more in the news and advising humanity...we would all prosper....
@Jordan Brown. Dawkins is neither left wing nor a purveyor of dribble (sic). He is intelligent measured articulate and honest. In fact the very antithesis of Trump
@@kengrev11 God created everybody with a free will choice when he made man here on the Earth. The book of Roman's clearly tells us that even the created things we see tells us there is a God. Science literally studies the heavens and the earthly elements & material that God created.

This is the kind of interview that I could watch for hours -- not just because Richard Dawkins is amazing, but because, for once, the interviewer actually seems extremely intelligent, is gracious, and is not trying to back Dawkins into a corner, or get him to say something controversial. Seriously, kudos to Bianca Nobilo for such a great interview, and for such great questions. It's a shame it couldn't have been a bit longer!

@Arthur Kroulik everyone knows trump is guilty of everything he's been charged with. all youre doing is confirming that trump's GOP enablers will hold him accountable for nothing. thanks for the confirmation.
Boxing Expert Richard Dawkins is perhaps the most influential biologist in the world so for you to call him a pseudoscientist only illustrates that you have no idea what you’re talking about. And the phrase “religion of atheism” is absurd. I get that you are trying to point out the hypocrisy of atheism by suggesting that we praise Dawkins the way a Christian praises Jesus or a Muslim praises Muhammad. But Dawkins doesn’t demand blind loyalty under threat of hell, he only asks that people think critically about religion. He even says in the interview that he wants people to come to their own conclusions rather than just believe what they’re told. That’s the exact opposite of what profits from the “holy books” say.
Who do think you are in position to tell our President resign. God put Trump in the White House. In the end He’s the one that will have the last word. There many will know that to late. God bless President Trump and God bless United States.
Truth is the only religion worth considering. Bravo as usual, Richard. And very intelligently interviewed, Bianca. Thanks from an expat American instrument maker in Vienna, Scott
So you're admitting that an infant can beat the entire Democratic? If he was an actual infant y'all would leave him in a room to die alone and neglected like ya'll do in Virginia. Pathetic. By the way I'm an atheist and I love Richard Dawkins. I also love President Donald Trump.
" Military cemeteries around the World are Packed with brainwashed Dead Soldiers who were Convinced God was on Their side. America prays for God to destroy our enemies. Our Enemies pray for God to Destroy us. Somebody's gonna be Disappointed. Somebody's wasting their Frigging Time. Could it be EVERYONE ? " ~ George Carlin
They're actually packed with soldiers who prayed to God for their eternal salvation and their families just before going into battle. If u had been a soldier, ud know that. If u had been n battles for ur life, knowing any minute ur life would end, and u didn't pray to God, then u were already dead spiritually.
@@whicker59 First off, Son - I merely quoted George Carlin - I didn't write the comedy routine personally. And having said that, you have NOT proven your own central point: God is not on anybody's side - that is just an emotional plea to YOU to go and Die. Good and Evil are relative to one's individual point of reference, and so long as we keep fooling ourselves that GOD is on OUR side - and not that of our enemies - we'll keep going into needless and endless War. You also have failed to prove that Praying has any effect upon the outcome of ANY situation.
@@bobbart4198 How many wars in the last century were started simply with the only rationalization being that "God is on our side"? I feel like atheists take the most surface level approach to analyzing religion and human history in order to make their their thought on the topic to sound more renowned.
Bianca: So, do you think America should be more secular? Dawkins: Sorry my dear, could you repeat that? I couldn't hear over the sound of how beautiful you are
Ironically, you chose your video title based on a 3-second long, insignificant comment as opposed to a truly representative title because you want to capitalise on sensationalism and people's tribal tendencies instead of emphasising the general truth Dawkins is talking about. It is exactly the kind of tribalism he referred to in this very video.
Dig This And yet the only one who benefits is Trump himself. So his real slogan is actually Trump First. And all you lemmings are applauding him for playing you for suckers!
BO BON BO BON 1. Is he though?! Is that why he can’t wait to show his tax returns? 2. Duly elected... with Putin’s help 3. Almost everyone knows Hitler’s name too! That’s not necessarily a compliment. 4. Yes, and we know he hires only the best! Too bad his ‘best’ seem to wind up behind bars. 5. Shall we talk about his casinos, Trump University, and his other 10 bankruptcies as well? 6. It’s a goddamn miracle he hasn’t pressed the button yet. But we’re talking anout the guy unable to close an umbrella while boarding the plane with toilet paper stuck to his shoe. It’s very likely he doesn’t get the concept of a ‘button’!
Jordan Brown You know what’s not funny? You calling scientists clowns and then voting for the lying orange moron. Now the dumbest president in history has to handle the coronavirus outbreak.
Maybe Dawkins should worry about the mess they have in the UK, instead of worrying about the US, a country with record high economics, and unemployment.
Possibly THE best interviewer i've ever seen&listened to.smart,good questions&going with the flow of the conversation.and it doesn't hurt,that she's beautiful.
Hes right though. Trump should resign. Hes also right on the uk. We are kicking out the evil christianity in favour of atheism. Loads of churches being changed into pubs and flats. It's beautiful
Such a bold statement😂? Come on, Lets get real. We all know CNN will put anyone on air including Satin himself if he had a Negative view on Trump. This is no surprise. This is what CNN does.
@@javierperwz3416 The problem is that we are facing a pandemic, where Trump's lack of basic scientific understanding is putting many, many more American's lives at risk. Trump thinks the flu vaccine would be effective against the Corona virus. Trump is just that stupid and ignorant to science.
rudai123 Obama and Hillary though that selling drugs to my country here in mexico was a good idea. By your comparison trump is an anger against what you had before. I’d rather have and ignorant decent person that a smart immoral ones. Those convince people that an abortion isn’t an end of a life. Or they tell you that man right there is a woman and if you don’t call him a woman you will be incarcerated. That’s evil. Trump saying shot like that is ignorant. Big difference.
Downvoting purely based on the sound engineer’s lack of competence. To be able to hear Dawkins speak, I had to set my volume so loud that my speakers almost jumped off my desk during the ads.
That's your punishment for not using AdBlock on Firefox. There was nothing at all wrong with the sound quality on this video - it feels just like the British TV I'm used to. I didn't even adjust the volume. Maybe you Americans should lower the volume on your videos and ads to a sensible volume.
Are you seriously stupid? No mainstream news have even had Chomsky on programs about books, to talk about books, not even if they pre-program what he say - for decades. Dawkins is a dangerous, narrow-minded, ignorant fanatic, but he don't criticize US foreign policy. Remind me of Hitches that tried to be just as popular, but that was until he condoned Bush and the war in Iraq.
