okay so, i decieded to go see the movie. I want to say is that i enjoyed it and if anyone has free time on their hands and wants to spend 10.50 on it, its worth it. Comical and informative.
I really enjoyed the fact he talked about the three major religions, Christian, Jewish, and Muslims. The one thing that i wish he did was talk about the jewish religion and muslim religion equally as he did about the christian relgion in the documentary. The point i think he was trying to get across ( or atleast it hought he was) was to basicaly in a sense get rid of relgion, or show that its all a bunch of " bull". I understand that and can see how things are stories. But that just brings total chaos if people really knew that. The point of relgion in some aspects is to prevent chaos.Yet its so ironic, because look at the world today in the 21 century. CHAOS EVERYWHERE! even in your daily life with any struggle your battling threw.
The one thing that i coudl say i disagreed with him was bout the whole miracle thing. I mean yeah it could be councidental but there as been things that have happened to me, just like the guy who mentioend the asked for rain adn ten seconds later it poured, have happend to me. I dont know if its timing but its really really really funny how things like that work out, and like i dont think it was councidental. Just at that moment, the right moment God just so happend to be listening to you. I agreed that he doesnt think hes AlWAYS listening to you( ex: santa claus bringing presents to everyone, and god listening to you segment in the movie) but just may want to show that he is there... maybee. haha who realy knows. just like bill was saying WHO REALLY KNOWS?! and i guess we wont really ever know. If it makes someone feel better and gets them threw the day than hey, let them belive what they want, cause its too late know to change what has been done.
and i dont think any religion is better than the other, to think that is just silly, and to think that youll go to heaven over someone else because your religion is better... i mean... come on. So in the end i enjoyed the movie, got me thinking, didnt change my views completly on certain things, but made me realize that we are all corrupt in a sense.

I agree with you on the miracle part because I DEFINITELY believe in miracles. I feel like they truly can happen as long as you believe, (believe being the key word).
I actually did not go see the movie Religilous, however I did read some viewer's reviews on the movie and it seemed to have pissed a lot of people off. Like you said Ream the movie tries to make people think that we don't need to have a religion or more so that no religion needs to exist. However I COMPLETELY agree with you that there would be complete and utter chaos without religion. Think about the people who turn to their God if they feel like commiting and sin. By having faith in their religion it gives them some sort of peace and an answer to their troubling problems. I think that without religion there would be even bigger problems in this world than there are right at this moment. I'm actually glad I didn't see this movie....from the reviews that I have read I know that I wouldn't have enjoyed it.
The point that you make, when you say that religion is just something people need to get through their day is exactly how i feel. Religion is a very nesecary thing for people to be comforted. Without it just like you descirbe would be chaos.
Not only do I agree you with that but also i agree when you say it doesnt matter what religion you have, what you believe is what you believe and it takes a hell of a lot to change that. Of course an individual would think what they believe in is the real thing and the best, but the truth is its called faith because it is an individual thing no one can make up your mind for you. Its whatever works for you.
