The movie that has been astounding audiences in
theaters around the world is now available on a high-quality,
feature-packed DVD.
In this provocative, critically acclaimed
documentary, you will discover:
- The early founders of Christianity seem wholly
unaware of the idea of a human Jesus
- The Jesus of the Gospels bears a striking
resemblance to other ancient heroes and the figureheads of pagan
savior cults
- Contemporary Christians are largely ignorant of
the origins of their religion
- Fundamentalism is as strong today as it ever
has been, with an alarming 44% of Americans believing Jesus will
return to earth in their lifetimes
- And God simply isn't there
Dazzling motion graphics and a sweeping soundtrack
propel this uncompromising and taboo-shattering documentary that
Newsweek says "irreverently lays out the case that Jesus Christ
never existed."
The God Who Wasn't There includes provocative interviews with:
- Sam Harris, PEN Award-winning author of
The End of Faith
- Robert M. Price, Jesus Seminar fellow
and author of The Incredible Shrinking Son of Man
- Alan Dundes, Professor of Folklore at
the University of California at Berkeley
- Richard Carrier, historian and author of
Sense and Goodness Without God
- Barbara & David P. Mikkelson, authors of
the Urban Legends Reference Pages at snopes.com
