Stephen Fry has called God a “capricious, mean-minded, stupid” and “evil” being.

The beloved British personality and well-known atheist has appeared on Irish program, The Meaning of Life with Gay Byrne.

While the program will air this morning (Sunday night in Ireland) the clip in which he takes issue with a supposed omnipotent God was posted on Twitter a few days ago and has garnered huge amounts of attention.
