John Lennox, Professor of Mathematics at Oxford University (emeritus), is an internationally renowned speaker on the interface of science, philosophy and religion. He regularly teaches at many academic institutions, is Senior Fellow with the Trinity Forum and has written a series of books exploring the relationship between science and Christianity. He is President of OCCA The Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics.

Christopher Eric Hitchens (13 April 1949 – 15 December 2011) was a British and American author and journalist. Known as one of the “Four Horsemen” of New Atheism (along with Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and Daniel Dennett), he gained prominence as a columnist and speaker. His epistemological razor, which states that “what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence”, is still of mark in philosophy and law.

The audio in this video is a 15 minute clip of a 90 minute debate between Christopher Hitchens and John Lennox (recorded on March 3, 2009, at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama). The topic of the debate was “Is God Great?”. Christopher Hitchens, being an atheist, argued that God is not great, belief in God is obsolete and God does not exist at all. John Lennox, being a mathematician but also a devout Christian, brilliantly argues that science and God are complimentary explanation of the universe. Lennox explores morality and intelligent design and refutes the claim the religion poisons everything.
