    Of course, the only part of this 30 minute episode that was flagged for copyright was the intro song at the beginning... (Hence why I had to cut it out) Copyright is strange sometimes! 😆

    Dawkins' God Delusion is a book that should be on every school syllabus. And by the way, Die Hard is a very good movie.

    Did this woman actually say that turkey as a Christmas dinner isn’t such a big thing in the UK? I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have turkey on Christmas day. Where have you been eating since living in England?

    7:45 In the bible, when angels appear, humans react either by going insane or by screaming uncontrollably in terror.
    For a christian to want angels around them all the time is madness.

    You’d have thought that Rev Canon Ann Easter would have known her scriptures better. NONE of the canonical gospels refer to there being 3 wise men. Only Matthew refers to wise men at all, and only that there were ‘some’ wise men. It only mentions that they brought 3 gifts. The Apocrypha, and a few other non-biblical texts, gives more details, but since most Christian denominations reject the validity of these texts, it’s a mystery as to why the notion persists. This is the sort of thing that happens when a religion is made up as it goes along.

    This "cunk" was mainly written by a man called Charlie brooker.he did tv series & journalism.I remember in the 90's he a show called in bed with me dinner!a parody of in bed with madonna!famous at the time because she showed "a bit of tit"Dianne Morgan plays cunk but adds a bit of improvisation herself,& with a northern English accent she maybe dumb down herself,so much the "experts" don't know how to react.they are told it's a parody but have know idea what she's going to say.she's appeared on game shows & Ricky gervais afterlife but also was main character in mandy.a comedy of a simple northern lass trying to get by in life.

    This is going to be a bit of "skabuoy reacts to Canadian reacts... ;-)
    "Murry is Mary in that accent. The accent has a problem with certain vowel sounds. Year, here, there, near, etc. become Yur, hur, thur, nur.
    The sentence right after that about trough and manger, is where she says 'whur', instead of where.
    Oh, the look on your face when the Reverend talks about angels being all around us (shouldn't have explained the fragrance bit though, expect a certain level of intellect of your audience).
    I was thinking exactly what you said about your "in a thousand years comment", but eternal life is only sustainable in combination with either (near) infertility or colonization of other planets. There's just not enough resources.
    Experts' reactions to Cunk have matured because the character has been around for quite a while. You should trace down the earliest episodes where they would literally look either shocked or flabbergasted, or politely try to steer Cunk by rephrasing the question several times just to avoid asking her if she is absolutely mental.
    Ooh! I liked Cunk's subtle one! "I don't like prawns. They're bottom feeders."

    Due to the mythological nature of scripture, I didn’t need the guidance of an authority figure to become an atheist. For instance, the virgin birth claim sounds somewhat improbable, especially when it is considered that Mary is also claimed to have had a male partner. Any literate person can wilfully fabricate such accounts.

      It is not ABOUT christmas. The events happen at christmas eve though, and it is kind of tradition now to be aired on TV during christmas. The fact certain things are not explicit does not exclude their possible existence.

      As opposed to the idea that humans are the special, blessed creation of a perfect being that created them in their image and loves them and considers the most important beings in his mindbogglingly vast creation and provides them with an afterlife to continue existing after death and listens to their prayers and has a plan for each of them....

      She also said she is vegan, so her dietary circles are probably different. She mentioned turkey dinners in relation to Canada, whilst (to me, as a Dutchman) it has always been something 'American'.
