Episodes
Sin
What are the big questions of life in a world leaving religion behind? In the first of three films, evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins looks at sin and morality, traveling from London to America's Bible Belt to find out how reason and science could help guide our lives. Are the old religious rules on right and wrong still helpful, and what can science tell us about how to be good?
Life After Death
Why do humans crave an afterlife – and how do we face death if there really is no God? In the second in his thought-provoking series, Richard Dawkins explores what science, instead of religion, can tell us about death. His journey takes us from a funeral pyre in India to cutting-edge laboratories in New York, where he has his entire genome sequenced to find out how he himself may die.
The Meaning of Life
If death really is the end, how do we create meaning in life? In the last part of his series, Richard Dawkins asks how both religious and non-religious people struggle to find point and purpose. He travels from Las Vegas casinos to Buddhist monasteries, discusses inspiration with comedian Ricky Gervais, and also reveals how scientific enquiry provides his own engine for existence.
