I can't help thinking this has been a little bit mis-reported. Even Dawkins himself admits he cannot prove there is no God - I don't think he would set up a camp to try to spend a week persuading kids that there isn't one.

I suspect the emphasis will be on the positive benefits of the subjects chosen for teaching, rather than on negative lectures about there being none of this, none of that, none of the other etc.

Even so, I bet I could paint a caricature of the 24 kids that have been signed up for this by their pushy, Guardian-reading parents. And I bet none of them is the most popular kid in their class.
