Texas Freethought Conv:
The Dawkins/Hitchens speeches and Q&A will be available soon in professional quality video.
The actual conference DVD set will be on sale soon, but the Dawkins/Hitchens event will be a FREEBIE on behalf of the RDF, TFC, AAA and the professional film crew who make their living helping our movement.
What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof.
