Do You Believe?

What's up with this stupid christians movies ? They are really that afraid of the rise of atheism ?

Sort of.  But it's really a potent mixture of religious insecurities (and yes, the declining power of religion, its lack of place in modernity, and rising atheism features heavily there), a pretty zealous reactionary bible-thumper subculture and sweet, sweet liquid capital (cha-ching!) that's behind this recent spate of movies.  But it's puzzling that people would go to the cinema to be told what they want to hear, when traditionally, that's been the church's job.

I would like to see a atheist movie showing how silly religion arguments  really are . I mean a serious movie . The Bill Maher movie was okay but I prefer a atheist movie with the serious tone. A movie like this could open the eyes of some believers. Hardcore  believers will never listen of course.

Like I said earlier, an atheist producer needs to make a satirical version of this movie. The lols would be worth it, the screams of the xtians also.

I'll tell you what I believe.

I believe I would much rather be home having a manhattan right now and looking for a LISP interpreter to play with.  That's what I believe.
