I Just Saw "Religulous" by Bill Maher
We went to see Bill Maher's RELIGULOUS a few hours ago. My awesome friend Maryanne told me I would go nuts when I saw it. Well, we used a coupon I cut out to get in for $3.25 each, the normal price is $6.50 each for a matinee, I was already hyped up. The Esquire Theatre on Ludlow is the perfect setting for a movie like this. The crowd had many older people in attendance, let's say 60 plus as the age group. They were laughing the loudest, except for me of course. I have been in touch with the inside joke of organized religion for a long time. Like I always maintain, if you can belief what the Republicans are selling you sure as hell can believe what the bible is selling. I liked the way Bill talked to out of the way people, the truck stop folks and the assorted preachers and nut jobs. Going to Mecca and the Vatican were excellent ideas. Hitting the Creation Museum in Northern Kentucky was just perfect, and funny. I've always been a fan of the hypocrisy of religion, it's just understood, no one questions it, they just keep on giving, sweet, I'm in the wrong business. Maryanne was wrong I did not go nuts at all. It's more like "I told you so", I am outspoken about religion and politics as they intertwine in the world and makes people in charge do idiotic things when it comes to domestic and foreign policy. I'm buying the DVD when it comes out for sure. I recommend the movie for any person who leans toward the religious side. It makes all three major religions, Muslim, Xtian and Jews look pretty stupid. I could get killed by a crusader for saying that. Things never change they just get more religulous every day.
