Religulous!

[Max]

Religulous is a documentary directed by Larry Charles and starring American comedian Bill Maher, host of Real Time With Bill Maher on HBO. According to Maher, the title of the film is a portmanteau derived from the words "religion" and "ridiculous," implying the satirical nature of the documentary that is meant to mock the concept of organized religion and the problems it brings about.

This actually looks pretty good. Upon watching the trailer, I wonder if this is to counter Ben Steins movie? I feel like more and more movies/documentaries are being made about religion, either for or against. Is this more because of the entertainment value, or because of an agenda, or people know that the controversy will bring in money? I'm sure it's a mix, but I wonder what is the primary motivator... meh, I'm rambling.

"No, I mean, one man going around the whole planet and hitting every house, that's ridiculous. But one man hearing the murmurs of everyone at once, that I get."

This could be pretty awesome .
