Coffee with Bernie


This is a neat little film out of Iowa- two guys on either side of the religious coin having a discussion that brings up a lot of the common arguments apologists use to try and convince atheists they're wrong. I like the antagonist quite a bit... He reminds me a little of one of my favorite atheists Matt Dillahunty of the Atheist Community of Austin. My only quibble is how readily the religious guy feeds the atheist his arguments. Some of them seemed a little out of context given how the whole thing starts out.

Pretty nice work!

Not bad although I didn't feel like the religious view was very well expressed and in a film like this (Like Inherit the Wind) that's what makes for intriguing conversation. I sort of felt like the religious guy was making feeble arguments and the Atheist was cutting him down to size too easily, and it made it pretty obvious which side the screen writer was on.
