Religulous

The title of the documentary is a hybrid of the words, “religion” and “ridiculous”.

Follow comedian, Bill Maher, as he travels to the world’s religious destinations in order to interview some of religion’s strangest adherents. Various Muslims, Jews and Christians all pass before his jaundiced eye. Maher goes to a Creationist Museum in Kentucky, which shows that dinosaurs and people lived at the same time 5000 years ago.

He talks to truckers at a Truckers’ Chapel. (Sign outside: “Jesus love you.”) He goes to a theme park called Holy Land in Florida. He speaks to a rabbi in league with Holocaust deniers. He talks to a Muslim musician who preaches hatred of Jews. Maher finds the unlikeliest of believers and, in a certain Vatican priest, he even finds an unlikely skeptic.

    It starts a bit slow and is mirrored, but for an anti-theist, it sure is amusing.

    is eager to attack Islam and Christianity, but avoided, perhaps conveniently, criticizing Judaism with the same volition and depth.

  • jesus

    The only reason Judaism is not attacked is because it has no problem adjusting to the changing times and does not force its ideals onto people who don’t want it. Christians who are in power in the west and Muslim extremists in the middle east use their religion to change government policy, and that is the real problem here.

    the logic of an atheist: “There are only two things i can’t tolerate: people who are intolerant of the beliefs of others, and religious people!”

      the logic of a theist: “Intolerance equals any critique of my beliefs.”
