Sin
Description
Beginning with the assumption that there is no God, in this program biologist and atheist Richard Dawkins challenges the fallacy that without the notion of sin to stop them, people would have no reason to behave ethically. As part of his argument, he gives evidence that rates of violent crime have gone down in societies that put less emphasis on religion.
