Posted by Mark Sinclair, 2 August 2011, 11:20 Permalink Comments (2)

Intelligence Squared is a global debating forum that invites leading intellectual figures to discuss contemporary issues. They've just released their first iq2 Short, an animated version of a debate that took place between Ann Widdecombe and Stephen Fry over the motion 'The Catholic church is a force for good in the world'...
IQ2's ten minute Animated Argument is adapted from a debate staged in 2009 which also featured Christopher Hitchens and John Olorunfemi Onaiyekan, the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Abuja. The animation is by Scriberia and features Widdecombe, a convert to Catholicism, in the blue corner, while Fry, an atheist, is in the red.

Interesting, & informative. Much I didn't know about the Catholic church was in this discussion.
