Available for the first time, this rare video of a 1996 debate at Oxford featuring four eminent participants, including noted biblical scholar Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. The discussion is both spirited and thought-provoking.
The panelists tackle the issue of whether or not God, and by extension, religion, is needed for there to be goodness in the world. Rabbi Boteach boldly asserts, as seen in this excerpt, that the greatest tragedies of the 20th century were not only removed from religious motivations, but were responsible for more casualties than religious wars in all other times put together.
This is a unique opportunity to own this video of Rabbi Boteach at his best, passionately arguing against the marginalization of the role of God in morality.
