Bill Maher Interviews M.I.A.

Bill Maher gets "Religulous"

Finally, finally, finally! Somebody has finally found the balls to challenge the world of modern organized religion. Bill Maher is poised to release a documentary with director Larry Charles entitled Religulous [a combination of religion and ridiculous] in which he will take a hard, sarcastic look at the fooleries of various religious groups around the world. Although Maher’s mother was Jewish, he was raised in the Catholicism of his father’s side of the family; now he calls himself a rationalist, and thinks the idea that we all came from a garden with a talking snake is a fairy tale for overgrown children and crazies. i don't necessarily agree with all of Maher's opinions, especially his disbelief in God, but I do believe that society as a whole has been hoodwinked into believing some very far-out ideas to promote disastrous agendas. Religion was the motivation behind the crusades; religion was the motivation behind slavery; religion is why the people in the Middle East have been warmongering for centuries; hell, religion put George Bush in office! Not only do I think it will be interesting to watch, it will also be interesting to see how Maher's Religulous is accepted. I predict a reception more or less similar to Fahrenheit 9/11. We shall see. Religulous is to be released this Friday, October 3, in New York and Los Angeles.
