    Anyone see Dawkins on The Panel last night promoting The God Delusion? I thought he came across pretty good although he was given a fairly easy ride, except for Miss Ireland, but he rode the gags thrown his way very well, I wonder how someone equaly zealous but on the opposite side of the fence would take it though. In fact I remember that god botherer from Boyzone threatening Delamare with violence if he slagged off his beliefs. Not exactly comparing like with like, but still...

    oh cool there a international discussion on the late late show there too, it was a frustrating show. The scrolling ringin comments show the worst of Ireland.

    cuaght most of it there last night, it was frustrating, I don't think Dawkins can help coming across as an arrogant English proffessor, cos that what he is. He seems to be everywhere these days but has obviously being doing this for years.

    I'd give her one.
    Good job by Dara on letting Dawkins talk.

    Does Dawkins have a new agent or something? He's everywhere right now!

    Just watched it.

    Thought he came across well, but then the guys on the panel were a bit more receptive to him than some of the late late crowd.
