The Root of All Evil?
I am a sucker for a good documentary. The problem is that most of them are biased in some way. Of course I like the ones that are biased in the way I like. The problem with that is you don’t get people from the other side to watch and learn. I, like most people agree that Michael Moore is a little over the top. I liked all his movies, but that is probably because I agree with most of what he has to say. Anybody with an opposite view isn’t going to watch Michael Moore movies, so they aren’t going to learn anything from them. They are just going to keep listening to Rush, Ann, and Hannity and all the crap that comes out of their mouths.
I just watched a really good documentary on Google video. It is about how religion is all wrong and is doing more harm than good. I have always thought religions were bullshit. I have never understood how people could believe in them, but I have never thought believing in nonsense as being harmful. Religion has never bothered me too much though because I know all the smart scientist and biologists doing all the good research that they do know the right things.
The documentary is from Richard Dawkins and called “The Root of All Evil?”. It wasn’t the title he wanted. The network that aired it titled it that. I thought it was really good, but then maybe that’s because I agree with it. You can check it out here. Part 1 Part 2 It’s a good watch whatever you believe. If only to make you think.
