Top Comments of this video!! :3
The thing about this is that Dawkins was under the impression that he was there to debate with Flowers about religion. He was embarrassed and actually apologized when he realised that Brandon was there to just promote his band. That's why Dawkins came across overly aggressive. The host should have made this clear to Richard beforehand. And to upload this clip without explaining the situation is kind of pathetic and unfair to both men.

Brandon is literally the most awkward celebrity on any kind of interview, he isn't easy to talk and that's why he does music. Do you wanna hear what he has to say about his religion? Go listen to The Killers albums: "Imploding the Mirage" and "Pressure Machine". As a spoiler, he is not a brainwashed Mormon, he is very stative on things about his own faith. Leave that man practice whatever he wants.
EDIT: I'm not Mormon or practice any kind of religion so I don't care what does he or any of you believe. Just listen to good music and let people find good wherever they think it's worth it. ✨

Terrible to attack a mans personal faith when he's there to promote his rock bands album. Agree or disagree with Dawkins take on things it was horrible to insult Flowers like that. Don't think he signed up for a religious debate before going on that show. Imagine a man or woman on a show promoting a cookbook and someone randomly attacking his/her sexuality. Terrible conduct. I'm a fan of a Dawkins but this was nasty.

I'm not religious but what is the point of destroying this young man's religious beliefs? From a personal perspective I would only do it out of jealousy. This kid believes in and takes comfort in a higher power, and I don't have the capacity to do that. Why should I shit on the beliefs that bring him happiness?

I don’t agree with Mormonism, and what Dawkins said her may in fact be very true, but he comes off as a pompous ass in this conversation. I feel second-hand embarrassment for Dawkins here since it’s kinda like watching a boxer mistake the referee as his opponent. Brandon was there to discuss his music, and Dawkins came in belligerently attacking him.

The problem with being attacked is person attacking is always prepared and the person attacked is often caught off guard and not in a mind set to debate. Like this case where Brandon came to talk music. The truth is that the Book of Mormon was translated into English. If I wanted to translate the word ‘place’ and chose ‘site’ or ‘location’ Dawkins would say I’ve done it wrong and this the entire book is false. Sometimes intelligence is your own worst enemy.
Carry on Brandon. You’re fine.
