Summary

Edgar Andrews is Emeritus Professor of Materials at the University of London and the author of "Who Made God?" He claims that the hypothesis of God is the best explanation for a variety of aspects of human existence and the universe as revealed by science. He has debated Richard Dawkins. Robert Stovold is an atheist with a background in evolutionary biology. He believes that positing God is an uneccesary addition to the facts that science gives us about the universe. They discuss fine tuning of the Universe, whether God could be behind the Big Bang and why the laws of nature are so elegant and intelligible to humans.
