Talk:The Magic of Reality

BBC2 NewsNight interview with Jeremy Paxman
This 8'40" clip from NewsNight on 13 September, 2011, includes sequences in which Dawkins and his wife Lalla Ward read from the book over animations based on its illustrations.

It is also of use because it contains a rather acerbic potted review of the book by Paxman.

DYK
Can we prepare for a WP:DYK for this article? Abhishikt (talk) 07:29, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Would have been nice. But a bit too late now.  I write the DYK at the same time that I'm writing the article.  And launch them both at the same time.  Sgerbic (talk) 22:58, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Seriously? "offending his world view where reality is more malleable"? "prefer to return to what he sees as the good old days"? Come on.

"Colin Tudge, in his very negative review for The Independent, takes Dawkins to task for defending absolute reality and offending his world view where reality is more malleable; he declares "it's time he was put a stop to". Tudge says he would prefer to return to what he sees as the good old days, saying "the 17th-century founders of modern science – Galileo, Newton, Descartes, Leibniz, Boyle, John Ray – were all devout. For them, to explore the wonders of the world through science was to glorify God." He further states: "How can we not believe in miracles, when stuff like this is presented as a serious contribution to the education of our children?"" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.128.50.31 (talk) 01:50, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
