Theology For All: A Conversation with David Wilkinson

Richard Dawkins, the best-selling author of the God Delusion and one of the preeminent 'new atheist' philosophers, has recently written a new book entitled, "Outgrowing God: A Beginner's Guide". In this book, Dawkins challenges his readers to accept that we don't need God to explain how the world works and how it came to be. 

In this month's Theology for All, Revd Prof David Wilkinson, Principal of St. John's College and a professor of Theology & Religion at Durham University, will be presenting his response: "Outgrowing Dawkins: A Beginner's Guide". Wilkinson will discuss the interaction between Faith and Science, and how they might be more closely aligned than Dawkins could have imagined.
