As you can see from the 2006 video cited by Beattie above, both are very persuasive (within our pro-science circle, anyways). But I think that deGrasse Tyson\u00e2\u0080\u0099s very penetrating question to Dawkins ultimately demands far more than the joking reply that you see here\u00e2\u0080\u0093funny though it is.&quot;<\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/religion\">religion<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/science\">science<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/politics\">politics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/academia\">academia<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/education\">education<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/blogs\">blogs<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/intersection\">intersection<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/video\">video<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"delicious-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.timeshighereducation.co.uk\/story.asp?sectioncode=26&amp;storycode=407231&amp;c=2\">Times Higher Education &#8211; Edict curtailing freedom to work at home &#8216;appals&#8217; staff<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-extended\">&quot;Lecturers have reacted with dismay to a policy requiring them to spend the full 35 hours of the working week on campus unless they obtain formal permission to work off site.<\/p>\n<p>The edict at Liverpool Hope University has been described by staff as a &quot;shocking&quot; example of micromanagement, an &quot;insult&quot; to their professionalism and an assault on the &quot;autonomy of academic life&quot;.&quot;<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/academia\">academia<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/culture\">culture<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/jobs\">jobs<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/world\">world<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/society\">society<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/law\">law<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Star Formation &quot;This blog is for the Physics and Astronomy Division of the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR, the sort of acronym that takes some real self esteem to embrace) to communicate with CUR members, the wider scientific community, and the general public.&quot; (tags: science academia education blogs) Salt Office Life \u00c2\u00bb 10 Ways to&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/2009\/07\/07\/links-for-2009-07-07\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">links for 2009-07-07<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"1","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3848","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-links_dump","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3848","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3848"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3848\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/chadorzel.com\/principles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
