60-Second Adventures in Religion – for iPad/Mac/PC

by The Open University
Since Sep 14, 2012 13:19 UTC

Ever wondered why Karl Marx thought religion was like Opium – or whether religion is possible without a god? Voiced by David Mitchell, this series of four 60 second animations examines different ways that religion has been viewed by non-religious thinkers. As well as Marx and Dawkins, religion is put under the microscope by thinkers Auguste Comte and JJ Bachoffen.
