Richard Dawkins at OK University

This is Richard Dawkins's introduction and response to Todd Thomsen's legislative decry in a lecture at Oklahoma University on Friday March, 6th. He proclaims that representative Todd Thomsen is not representative of the state of Oklahoma. In response to Thomsen he states that if a University should only hear opinions that the citizens of their state agree with, then "you can kiss goodbye to everything that a university stands for. What on earth is a university for, if it only reinforces opinions that students already hold."

"As it happens, evolution is a scientific fact as securely established as any fact known in science."
~Richard Dawkins
