Rating: 9.6/10 (30 votes cast)

In this BBC documentary film about Atheism, Jonathan Miller visits the absent Twin Towers to consider the religious implications of the 9/11 terror attacs and meets Arthur Miller and the philosopher Colin McGinn. He searches for evidence of the first ‘unbelievers’ in Ancient Greece and examines some of the modern theories around why people have always tended to believe in mythology and magic. So few representatives of atheism provide a compelling and earnest account for unbelief, let alone with the lucidity and intellectual vigor of Jonathan Miller. He is sincere and moving in this attempt to explain and understand the origins of the truth of disbelief of religious superstition and faith. This documentary is dedicated tho those who do not believe in god or are still searching for “it” and wounder why they don’t fint what they are searching for.

    God is the creator of the earth and the universe and mankind but he or it is not our babysiter. Religion is a blasfamy in of itself. organized religion only perpetuaits hatered and bigitry. God does not want us to kill each other or hate each other. But each organized religion perpetuates these hatefull beliefs. there will never be peace untile each and every religious sect agrees on the mission of the one true God. and above all else i believe that to be love one another, even your enemies.

      If there is something like a “God”, we should stop calling it “God”. I believe that in most religions God is depicted as unknowable, so why do people need to reduce the unknowable to a word like “God” which is a noun. This might seem unimportant, but using a noun for something that is unknowable and therefore undefinable, just opens the door to dogma and all the destructiveness that comes with it.

    Aristotle’s year of birth is written incorrectly (56’8″), it’s not 348 BC, it’s 384 BC.
