Congrats to the cameraman.
It can't easy filming and riding a unicycle at the same time -
Arguing with religious people is like telling your mom that online games can't be paused
-
Unfortunatley it was the same kid who films school fights that they asked to film this.
-
What a privilege to have a teacher like Richard Dawkins.

"What came first, the plant or the oxygen?" - I can't even...

Dawkins really is a gifted science communicator. Also credit to the students for politely engaging with a subject that must have been fairly disconcerting. Grown adults often become combative and resentful during discussions like this

The moment I got punished for asking questions and pointing out plot holes in a Baptist school as a kid I knew they were all liars and people just wanting to manipulate people.

The camera guy has unique style to say the least.
-
The camera guy is in the first stage of his evolution 😊
-
Dawkins was so gentle. So carefull with this kids. 😊 He didn't scar them with his typical answers. ❤
-
I glad that Dawkins brought up that Darwin was wrong on some things, it disproves the creationist argument that evolution is a religion.
-
Giving props to the cameraman who is stoned but still manages to cover the angles
-
This is one enthusiastic camera guy
-
I appreciate how respectful he is toward them when answering their questions. Try asking a Christian questions and you’re pretty much belittled and told to shut up.

Parents really did a number on these children.

"Good morning"
2 seconds later
"The universe is about 14 billion years old"
Wow Richard that was fast -
The poor Muslim kid is struggling with cognitive dissonance.
This was a good piece and those kids did well and seemed to try hard to understand and be open minded, and to understand how science works and religion works, and how they can be contradictory. -
“Is there any reason to suppose nowadays that the biggest brained individuals are the ones that survive best?" looks around at class "Not that I can see.” Greatest subtle roast ever.

It's a horribly uncomfortable feeling when you start to come to terms with the fact that a large chunk of what you were taught in your childhood is demonstrably false, but it is a very important part of maturing that many people unfortunately never have.
