Creation

S1, E1: In the first episode of this provocative new series, novelist Howard Jacobson is the first of seven prominent figures to give their personal view of the Bible and why it's relevant today. Jacobson confronts the raging controversy between militant atheists and those who believe in the literal truth of the Creation story as told in Genesis. In a powerfully argued polemic, Jacobson suggests that both sides have missed the point and concludes that the Creation story is a life enhancing myth: a great work of literature which celebrates the creativity of both the Creator and man, his creation.
