[MD] Dawkins a Materialist (is watching?)

Craig,

Say the light produced by the sun and a flashlight are the same, are you
"aware" of the difference? Is a photo cell "aware" of the difference?

Just as you could invent/design a photo-electric cell to react differently
to light from the red end of the spectrum than to light from the blue end of
the spectrum, you could invent/design a photo-electric cell to react
differently to sunlight than to a flashlight, if there was detectable
difference in the light each produced.  Any other difference between the sun
& a flashlight would not play a role.
