Not surprisingly, it gets a bad review. There's whining that secular groups are just as bad (including the non religious nazis, according to the writer) and complaints about Dawkins' lack of irony or humor.

I just thought people here might be interested in this.

Homer: He thinks he's so big, with all his money and wealth. But there's one thing he can't buy with his money.

Marge:What's that?

Homer:........a dinosaur.

Hi Jason! Welcome to SFN!

Having seen the both episodes, I 'm not so impressed either.
The review seems to be of the first episode. Dawkins makes a better point in the second.
