That has been on the main news a bit in the UK. No doubt various cassock clad numpties will be up in arms about it today!

All this kerfuffle about Dawkins running an atheist summer camp designed to tempt the innocent minds of kids away from godliness onto the path of immorality and atheism is bollocks.

Everybody knows that we don't have summer in the UK.

Seems to be a fairly balanced story - although if there hadn't been a caption under that picture of Samantha, I don't think I would have known who it was. (I've met her in real life a few times.)
