You’ve got to enjoy a clip of a Bill O’Reilly interview in which the guest is prepared for O’Reilly belligerent ranting and raving. Between calling Dawkins a Fascist and that there are people much smarter than him who disagree with Dawkins’ point of view, O’Reilly really comes off as a jerk, not a “journalist.” But, really, that’s nothing new…
DAWKINS: Science is, at least, working on the problem.

O’REILLY: “Science doesn’t advance the human condition in any moralistic way”
Look at Dawkins’ reaction to that statement (see 1:45 to 1:52). Of course, science has little to do with morality, aside from allowing us to make informed and ethical decisions, but has advanced the human condition in many ways i.e. sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health. Also, check out Dawkins telling O’Reilly to stop shouting at him at about 3:50 into the video.

Isn’t part of that list of what science has done for us taken from Life of Brian when that guy asked, “What have the Roman’s ever done for us?”.
jonathan, No idea… I watched that too long ago to remember, but probably, now that I looked it up: “better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order… what have the Romans done for us? “
I thought O’Reilly was a lot more polite than he is to a lot of guests. I think he actually quite likes Dawkins even if he disagrees.
