Aired 11-7-09 on BBC World

Is the Catholic church a force for good in the world?

Speaking for the motion, Archbishop John Onaiyekan and Ann Widdencombe MP. Speaking against the motion, Christopher Hitchens and Stephen Fry.

Is this the same show they air on NPR on the weekends?

This sounds interesting.

On a somewhat related note, I'd love to kick Chris Hitchens in the balls. Despite his being on the right side of this
