The uncut interview on YouTube
Watch it while if you can!

Richard Dawkins’ web site is selling the DVDs of the broadcast programmes of the last year’s series The Genius of Charles Darwin. They are also selling a collection of DVDs featuring the uncut interviews made for that same series. (Click here for details.) Some of the full interviews are available on line for free, but not the one with John Mackay.

However, an atheist student from Texas (TheCounterweight1) put the interview with John on YouTube. Obviously, this student did not care about copyright - when the original broadcast programmes were posted on YouTube they were withdrawn within days! Over the months various other users uploaded sections of this interview, but then YouTube took some parts off line.

By May 2010 YouTube appears to be blocking most these videos, though they are still listed on various channels. We suggest that you use the link to the right to search YouTube for “Dawkins Mackay” and view any parts that are available. remember you are looking for the uncut interview.

Defying Darwin

The Guardian - February 2009

Darwin's bicentenary on 12th February, brought his theory before the public as the media paid relentless homage to him. We heard that the Guardian delayed Stephen Moss's article because they did not want to publish anything critical of Darwin in the week of his birthday!

You can read it here on the Guardian's web site. Includes comments from both John Mackay and Randall Hardy.

The Genius of Charles Darwin,
Channel 4 TV - August 2008

The third episode of this series featured an encounter between Richard Dawkins & John Mackay.

It was very good to hear Dawkins once again admit that evolution has not been observed, but we were more surprised by his considered comment that, "The refusal to believe in anything you can't see yourself is absurd."
