It looks and sounds like Maher and Charles plan to say anything, expose anything, and tear into a millennia-old structure that’s always been at the center of war, politics and law. Check out their comments:
Maher: Since there is nothing more ridiculous than the ancient mythological stories that live on as today’s religions, this movie would try to be a real knee-slapper. Comedically, the topic of religion is hitting the side of a barn — it’s literally hard to miss.
Charles: The funny will be scary, the scary wildly funny. The crazy will seem sane and the sane absolutely and undeniably crazy. All lines are blurred. All bets are off. Nietzsche said God is dead, but he didn’t see the grosses for The Passion of the Christ.

The First Amendment is under brutal attack in the scientific community
There is a segment in the film, where it's made clear that intelligent design can open up new areas of inquiry that could improve the human condition. One involves a neurosurgeon, Michael Egnor, and another scientist, Jon Wells, who indicate that given how the cells are put together, with eye toward intelligent design, and with the idea that animal cells have tiny turbines - or if viewed as tiny turbines - he was able to formulate a theory that said in the event these things malfunction and don't properly shut down and could break apart, this is the first step on the way to cancer.
I mean, God bless him (Richard Dawkins), he's obviously an intelligent guy, but it's obviously wrong.
I think there is this kind of Marxist establishment in this country that has been overthrown in other countries, but not overthrown here. There is a very powerful Marxist establishment within the intelligentsia that does not allow questioning of its premises
And I said, this to us - at least to me, I don't know what it is to other people in the film - is a bit like the Civil Rights movement

dddd wrote:John Locke once asked this question:
"What came first, mind or matter"?
For the materialists who do science, the answer is a forgone conclusion and no other answers can be considered. Mindless matter came first and everything from the universe, to evolution to your decisions and actions are mind-less matter in motion. And anybody who presents factual evidence that suggests otherwise is just a toothless, "backwater", snake-handling, idiot who also probably believes in fairies, gnomes and hobgoblins.
Today they don't burn you at the stake, but they do burn your reputation and career at the stake for even questioning materialism.
This documentary exposes most modern scientists for what they are: puppets to this belief system. And by asking simple, direct questions Ben Stein shows his deftness as a masterful puppeteer.
Go see this documentary. It's hilarious!
