You constantly point the finger at me, shouting for me to be open minded about your beliefs, yet you will not even be open to mine. You're all about the fight, and nothing more. You don't even search for the truth, because you are so brainwashed into believing there is NO truth. You're so open minded your brains have fallen out.

Maher does ask questions that make people uncomfortable; a real test of faith for the religious. The movie is full of quotes from the New and Old Testament, as well as the Koran. I highly recommend all Theists, Atheists and agnostics to see ad discuss this movie. I did the this movie today and was quite impressed.

Instead, he's created the universe and allows for a majority of the humans who populate one of the planets to spend a billion billion billion consecutive years being tortured. Sounds like a pretty "good" guy. Yeah, God’s not, um, vengeful.

Maher has done his research, he's read the texts repeatedly, and simply asks believers what they believe. Then he asks a few follow-up questions that, quite frankly, the vast majority of the people he talked to can't answer, much less defend. And the money maker that religion is really goes without saying here, don't you think? Logic. Reason. Evidence. Science. As a a secular humanist - yes, an atheist - it is refreshing to see someone represent me for a change - and in such a smart and FUNNY way. My catholic mom would find much of this movie funny - and I hope she would be open-minded enough to actually watch it first before making nearly 300 comments about the movie's point before it was even released into theaters. Oh - catholics come off pretty good in the movie, really, with a really funny senior priest at the Vatican basically agreeing with Maher and a PhD priest talking about the acceptance of science/evolution. Good movie. Go see it - you might be surprised. Religulous is a smart, funny, entertaining, well-researched, and well-produced film.
