Elliot's presentation takes us through the reasons not to believe in gods and provides ammunition for debating believers with a little humour to lighten the mood
Elliot George, the 'docile Dawkins', is the author of Godbuster - Exorcises all known gods.
He is a retired Science teacher who can't stop spreading the message of Scientific Realism and, recently, he accepted the challenge of an Evangelical Pastor to debate the validity of belief in the Pastor's own church. The video of this event will be on youtube soon...
Elliot also provides free teaching resources on the TES website for the non-belief section of the National Curriculum Religious Education syllabus. These resources attempt to redress the imbalance between the availability of faith material and the dearth of atheist material in secondary schools. They include several powerpoint presentations and the website http://doubtersclub.webplus.net. They have been viewed and downloaded thousands of times and have attracted some criticism from believers.
