| − | In 2009, Fry (with Christopher Hitchens) took part in a debate for ''Intelligence2'' on the topic "Is the Catholic church a force for good?" against [[Ann Widdecombe]] and Archbishop John Onaiyekan. The audience was asked to vote at the end of the debate. Fry who argued for "no" won by 1876 against and only 268 for, but this was in the context of an internet audience that is overwhelmingly atheist, skeptical, secular and materialistic. Very few religious people would even have heard of the show. <ref>http://www.intelligencesquared.com/events/catholic-church</ref> | + | In 2009, Fry (with Christopher Hitchens) took part in a debate for ''Intelligence2'' on the topic "Is the Catholic church a force for good?" against [[Ann Widdecombe]] and Archbishop John Onaiyekan.
