The God Delusion (Read by the Author)

Posted by Notcot on Jun 7, 2012 in Cult Film
The God Delusion (Read by the Author)

The God Delusion caused a sensation when it was published in 2006. Within weeks it became the most hotly debated topic with Dawkins himself branded as either saint or sinner for presenting his hard-hitting impassioned rebuttal of religion of all types. His argument could hardly be more topical. While Europe is becoming increasingly secularized the rise of religious fundamentalism whether in the Middle East or Middle America is dramatically and dangerously dividing opinion around the world. In America and elsewhere a vigorous dispute between ‘intelligent design’ and Darwinism is seriously undermining and restricting the teaching of science. In many countries religious dogma from medieval times still serves to abuse basic human rights such as women’s and gay rights. And all from a belief in a God whose existence lacks evidence of any kind. Dawkins attacks God in all his forms. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war foments bigotry and abuses children. “The God Delusion” is a brilliantly argued fascinating polemic that will be required reading for anyone interested in this most emotional and important subject.

Posted by Notcot on Jun 7, 2010 in Cult Film

Average Rating: 4.0 / 5 (42 Reviews)

Amazon.co.uk Review
Patterns exist everywhere: in nature, in science, in religion, in business. Max Cohen (played hauntingly by Sean Gullette) is a mathematician searching for these patterns in everything. Yet, he’s not the only one, and everyone from Wall Street investors, looking to break the market, to Hasidic Jews, searching for the 216-digit number that reveals the true name of God, are trying to get their hands on Max. This dark, low-budget film was shot in black and white by director Darren Aronofsky. With eerie music, voice-overs, and overt symbolism enhancing the somber mood, Aronofsky has created a disturbing look at the world. Max is deeply paranoid, holed up in his apartment with his computer Euclid, obsessively studying chaos theory. Blinding headaches and hallucinogenic visions only feed his paranoia as he attempts to remain aloof from the world, venturing out only to meet his mentor, Sol Robeson (Mark Margolis), who for some mysterious reason feels Max should take a break from his research. Pi is complex–occasionally toocomplex–but the psychological drama and the loose sci-fi elements make this a worthwhile, albeit consuming, watch. Pi won the Director’s Award at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival. –Jenny Brown
