Could this be moved to a section of the overall Dawkins article? Would it fit better there? Researcher 00:20, 2 October 2008 (EDT)


Name[edit]

This article mentions that the question mark was added by the producers. I have heard the complete opposite: Dawkins wanted to give it a more diplomatic name, but the producers insisted that a controversy-inducing name should be picked, and Dawkins agreed to this with the condition that the question mark would be added to stem the tide a bit. Can anyone confirm either position? Hilavitkutin (talk) 14:20, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Ah, it's a newer article. I thought I'd written down that exact factoid already, but it might be elsewhere. Dawkins brings it up frequently when he's accused of being mean to religion and people say "but you called it the 'root of all evil' didn't you?" Scarlet A.pngbomination 17:16, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
