About this listen
The war that is spreading across the Middle East has a religious dimension.
American aggression is supported by evangelical Christians, Iran is an Islamic state and Israel has its own Jewish deity.

Robin Dunbar is Professor of Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Oxford. From his academic standpoint he charts the evolution of religion in all its many guises and forms.
