RELIGULOUS (2008)
Directed by: Larry Charles
Starring: Bill Maher

Two things I should say from the outset. First, I am a Christian. Second, I did not like the film Religulous. I recently told this to an atheist acquaintance of mine and he suggested that that reason I didn’t care for this unabashedly anti-religious film was because I was “in denial of the central premise.”

An interesting point. On some level, he’s right. As a Christian, there were several things I did not like about this movie. I felt both misrepresented and insulted; always a frustrating combination. However, as angry as I was as a Christian, I was absolutely livid as a film critic.

W. (2008)
Directed by: Oliver Stone
Written by: Stanley Weiser
Starring: Josh Brolin, Elizabeth Banks, James Cromwell, Richard Dreyfuss, Geoffrey Wright

There is a haunting scene in Oliver Stone’s W. in which President George W.

Tyler was recently included in the panel on faith and film, which took place at the Mountaineer Short Film Festival in Morgantown, West Virginia.  You can listen to it below.

Hey, everybody. While we do consider More Than One Lesson to be a true labor of love, the occasional cost does crop up. Comic-Con hotel rooms, publicity materials, and, of course, movie ticket prices. In an effort to cover these costs, we’re asking for donations from those that can spare a few dollars. If everybody that listened to the show donated just $5, we would have all of our costs covered (including episode storage and bandwidth).

So, if you’re a fan of the show and website, please help us out. Thanks.
