Got an hour or two? Check out the 2 part documentary, The God Delusion with Richard Dawkins
Part 2 is below the fold, as are the results of the Omni Brain user survey on religion (well it's really a single question).
Would you call yourself religious?
yes 13.6%
no 86.4%

Actually, the documentary as a whole is untitled The Root of all Evil? (a title Richard Dawkins disagreed with but nevertheless went through anyway) and The God Delusion is the subtitle of part 2.

thanks Tyler! I kinda figured that would happen since there wasn't much in the way of text to go along with the videos.

Dawkins is excellent as usual.
I loved the bit with Ted Haggard, especially given the perspective gained by recent events. I also loved the closer from part 1, "Some of us just go one god further."
