god created her with a loving touch and made her special by giving her special DNA that makes her a unique individual!
I was wondering what she meant when she kept refering to the relation between Darwinism and brutal communities. She sort of answers it in 5/7 but I would say it is demeaning to refer to her as a chimp...demeaning to the chimp that is. Chimps have been shown to exhibit remarkable intelligence.
On a positive note, I have to say she has chutzpah and never loses confidence even in the face overwhelming rationality. something to be admired.

max, thanks for posting this. i have watched till 5/7. will be watching the other 2 now. her confident non-arguments are intriguing and I watch to see how she responds to Dawkin's oh-so-patient reasoning. it does remind me of some arguments we have here on such.

watched all 7.
i wonder why they never sat down.
I particularly liked it when dawkin's asked her if schools should teach creation theories such as genesis and hindu's cosmic ocean churn instead of scientific facts. he mentioned one other belief but it wasnt very clear what he said.
btw, does ocean churning refer to creation in hindu mythology? i thought it was about the tussle between good and evil?

in any case, it is ironic that this woman accuses evolutionists of forcing their beliefs on everyone. when, in fact, she is the one with no sense of differentiation between personal beliefs and facts.

we may be biased, so i wonder if a creationist would think she made eloquent arguments and that her smile was not plastic but she was the one being patient with Dawkins.

comments to the videos - maybe all is well with the world and maybe she is just an aberration.
