I'm convinced. I'm definately going to see this movie. It sounds like a good laugh, and I've always enjoyed a good poke at man-made religion. I'm sure it will be almost painful to watch the foolish "Christians" spout off nonsense and give the rest of us a bad name, but in the end the truth will stand.
I hadn't heard of this film until today when I read an article in the newspaper condemning the film for lampooning the faithful. I was surprised from your article, Mark, that Bill does actually end the film on a positive note.

Hey Jim...the article was written by Steve Holt. For some reason, it gave my author bio originally, but is now fixed.

So, Christianity Today is reporting today that individuals connected with the movie's production were behind a boycott plea video by a "Christian rock band," lovingly called "Rapture Right." =) The stunt was apparently to generate more interest in the film and get people to go see it. Interesting how the traditional Evangelical boycott, to which I refer in this review, is now being turned on its head and used by the other team. Guess it's one more clue into how silly we look sometimes.
Has anyone else out there seen Religulous? What are your thoughts?

Whoops ... here's the link to the RR video, and here's the link to the CT coverage.

I don't have the money to see any movies, sorry to say, but if I did and had to choose between Religulous and The Ordinary Radicals I'd certainly go for the latter. Religulous sounds too much like cheap entertainment to me -- empty calories -- where Jamie Moffett's movie is (as far as I can tell) food for thought ...

Maher’s main problem isn’t so much with belief or the person of Jesus, but with fallen believers who choose to follow what he believes is a fairytale instead of actually making the world a better place. He’s also on the offense against absolute certainty
