Cathedral seminar to equip clerics to deal with Dawkins

Canterbury, England (ENI). The Anglican bishop of London, Richard Chartres, is to host a study day at St Paul's Cathedral in the British capital to help clergy counter the influence of the scientist and atheist Richard Dawkins. A keynote speaker will be John Cornwell, the author of "Darwin's Angel", whose subtitle is, "An angelic riposte to 'The God Delusion'". Cornwell will advise clergy on how to respond to the claims of Dawkins at a time when the apparent polarisation between religion and science raises many questions for people of faith.
