Description:
Bowling for Columbine did it to the gun culture. Super Size Me did it to fast food. Now The God Who Wasn't There does it to religion.
Holding modern Christianity up to a bright spotlight, this eye-opening documentary asks the questions few dare to ask. 'Did Jesus even exist?' is just the beginning for The God Who Wasn't There. Your guide through the world of Christendom is former fundamentalist Brian Flemming, joined by such luminaries as Jesus Seminar fellow Robert M. Price, author Sam Harris and historian Richard Carrier.
In addition to the film, which won the Best Documentary award at the 2005 Grassroots Cinema Film Festival, this feature-packed DVD includes:
-Special commentary tracks with Richard Dawkins and Earl Doherty
-Over one hour of compelling additional interview footage
-An in-depth Web-enabled slide show
-Music from the soundtrack
-Bios of all participants
This provocative DVD takes off the gloves and gives religion an unprecedented, no-holds-barred examination. So hold on to your faith. It's in for a bumpy ride.

I just finished watching this and I must say I am a little disappointed. The film starts with a very sarcastic and biased view of the life of Jesus. I realize this movie is made by an atheist but when you are trying to make a point sarcasm isn't always the best way. Especially when dealing with religion.
I have not watched the "Extended Interviews" yet however, most of the interviews are short and rather pointless. We all know most Christians stumble when you ask them tough questions. ... Read More

In the beginning, it starts to lay out an interesting case for the nonexistence of Jesus, based on the 40+ year span between his death and the first possible date of the first gospels being written, during which no other mention of his recent existence could be found. A fascinating prospect, if explored in greater detail.
However, the latter part of the documentary takes a different approach, simply discussing the many contradictions of modern Christianity. Provocative, perhaps, but nothing ... Read More

I think I should start my review by saying that I am an atheist, since readers will wonder on what side of the fence I stand before they decide whether they should take me seriously. So, if you are a Christian, you probably won't find anything useful in the paragraphs below.
That said, I was disappointed with this documentary. I bought it mainly because Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins are mentioned in the presentation of the material, and I am a fan of both. What I was expecting to see in this ... Read More

As most of the positive reviews of this film have pointed out, there are a lot of good points made, and a wealth of valuable information and insight presented by the filmmaker. The best parts, in my view, were the direct interviews : Robert Price, Richard Carrier, and especially Sam Harris (Harris' two books are must-reads, by the way). Their comments were thoughtful, probing and insightful. Where the film fell short (again, this is my take) is when Brian Flemming (who wrote, directed and narrated this film) ... Read More
