Default Stephen Fry on the Catholic church

This is definitely worth watching. Stephen Fry is just the most remarkable and compelling speaker.
The Intelligence² Debate - Stephen Fry (Unedited) - on Dailymotion

Be good if the responses to this post were more reasoned debate than prejudice and vitriol. I'm sure if Stephen Fry can manage it with a topic about which he feels so passionate then so can we.

Any idea where you can see the other speakers? I'd like to hear what the others have to say too.

Looks like the other speakers are on video here but you have to pay to see them :

I too would be interested to see what the other speakers said.

He is such an eloquent speaker. That was concise and informative. I always think you do better in a debate by keeping the emotion down and facts up and he did that, but with his passion being evident all the time.

I'd personally like to hear what he'd day if he wasn't on tape and just chatting about it with a few trusted friends.

Whilst perhaps not as enlightening as the op intended but good for a giggle, certainly not U rated youtube Tim Minchin - The pope song.
