2011 Programme: Battle for Morality

Are these decadent times: are we in what David Cameron calls “a slow-motion moral collapse”? Can we still tell right from wrong without expert guidance? Does Evil stalk this world? Is marriage a holy sacrament or just a convenience, even an excuse for a party? If it were legal to take drugs, would you? Should you? Is prison just punishment and is that so bad?

'The Battle for Affluence'

"Depressed by 'debates' where the panel ignore each other? The Battle of Ideas is the real deal - two days of verbal fistfights. Accept no alternative."
