I also watched it as it aired tonight. The "interview," if you wish to name it as such, was far too short to even have any type of involved argument.

Dawkins should have refused the "interview" if he knew it was going to be so short.
Exactly. I think Bill made it so short because he knew that getting too deep on the topic would have opened him and his Jesus/God fairy tale up to too much scrutiny and fraud exposure.

However, if Dawkins knew that the interview was going to be this short, like you said, he should have refused it out of principle for not getting a fair hearing on his views or the issues.

If he did it just to get some time to plug the book...well, at least it gets the info out a little more and perhaps those who are having a crisis in keeping their faith could be convinced to go buy one and then be pushed off the fence into reality.
