For the atheists and skeptics here, and for those that aren't really- here is the link to the google video of Dawkins, author of many fine skeptical books, new BBC show. It's a two part special.

Dawkins is usually rather aggresive with believers in the supernatural but in this show is rather tame. Frankly the believers don't need help looking stupid.
From the dowsers that fail the double blind test, to the psychic healers, even Deepak Chopra himself- all manage to look ridiculous.
This show is less about religion (other than the new age versions of some religion) and more on Astrology, faith healing, and the like. It's hard to see how he keeps a strait face with some of them though.
One thing you will see repeated alot is that new agers hijack real science when they think it sounds authoritative. They invoke DNA, quantum mechanics, etc- all without the slightest understanding of what they are talking about. It's dangerous because it blurs the line between real science and their pseudoscience gibberish.
Enjoy folks.
