The GOD Movie…
Interesting. Think about what Bowling for Columbine did for guns and what Super Size Me did for fast food. The God Who Wasn’t There does the same for religion.
Jesus was a spiritual and political leader of great renown. The sick came from miles around to seek his miraculous healing powers. At the height of his popularity, he triumphantly entered Jerusalem with his followers, appeared to declare himself the Messiah, violently disrupted the business of the temple, and, after being tried by Pontius Pilate himself, was put to death as a revolutionary.
Given these facts, Jesus would have been one of the most remarkable figures in Palestine. Yet not one historian of the time thought that this man was important enough to note, even in passing.
In fact, there were not even any Gospel accounts for years following the supposed death of Jesus.
How many years?
It’s entertaining watching these people try to answer the questions, “After Jesus died, how did Christianity spread?” Especially when no one took some time to even write one account about this well-known and leader, at the time. Why would it take so long for someone to finally come up with an account of Jesus. Watch the clips for an interesting and different perspective.
