Archbishop of Cantebury and Richard Dawkins set for debate

THE Archbishop of Canterbury and atheist Professor Richard Dawkins are to go head to head to discuss man’s greatest question.

The leader of the Church of England will meet Britain’s most famous non-believer to take on the complex subject of “The nature of human beings and the question of their ultimate origin”.

The pair - who will be unlikely to find much common ground - will be joined by philosopher Sir Anthony Kenny at the event at Oxford University.

The discussion, which organisers expect to be “invigorating and enlivening”, is to be streamed online on 23 February.
