What is it?
The 2009 documentary Selling God by Carl Christman.
My Thoughts
I saw the thumbnail & name of this documentary on an online streaming video website, it caught my attention, and so I decided to listen to / watch some of it; and I ended up listening to most of it.
The approach that this documentary takes is one that seems like it is meant to annoy those who are religious & is not an approach that is likely to connect well with people within that group at all, and I think that they should have went with a different approach.
I also do not like how they oversimplified some things so much that some things were wrong, but if you can get past those things it does point out some issues & things that people should think about.
This documentary works better when it takes that approach instead, they probably took the other approach often to make it more entertaining or funny in their view, and probably to point out some of the absurdity in their view.
I would probably rate this documentary a 5 – 6 out of 10.
The end,
