Comedian Bill Maher, presents a rebuttal to religion - esp. the Abrahamic religions. Personally, I feel that the God Delusion, did a much better job. Maher does raise valid points - but his presentation, and atagonism towards some of his interview subjects are not going to help spread his message.
I thought of Religulous as a mockumentary - fact-checking was poor, and it was mainly poking fun at the silliest ideas and phenomena in the Abrahamic religions, not exactly refuting them but raising doubts. As Bill Maher says, "Doubt is my product".
ReplyDeleteOnly problem is that few religious people are likely to see it and thus receive the dose of doubt.
