I cannot even begin to tell you how much your story helped me. I came across it by accident while struggling desperately to hold on to my faith. My journey was very similar to yours and so much of this just resonated so strongly with me. This piece was instrumental in me finally admitting to myself that I didn't believe anymore--and that that was okay! Once I let go, this huge burden was lifted and everything after has been easy. Thank you so much for sharing your story. It made such a huge difference in my life.

Love this. By the way, I knew Deepak Chopra was full of it when he said humans get old because they think they will get old. Then how come dogs get old? Hmmm?

I really enjoyed this presentation having seen a lot of Julia's former sketches. This is a fine fine distillation of them.

I’m starting to let go of the idea of a Deity, religion has brought stress and mental anguish in my life, especially as a Queer male, I remember living in my religious parents watching this and being curious and watching it, it stuck with me, even tho I did not come from a catholic background, Christianity in all it’s form, just does not make sense.

I absolutely love this movie. I still have the DVD, which I put on rather regularly. I do have one question though about the movie vs. your live show (which I saw in Cambrdige MA.): Why did you remove the gag with the two visuals of Jesus? It KILLED in the live show, and looked forward to showing some friends that gag when the DVD came out. Just interested as to why it was omitted. Oh, and, Please come to Boston again. Hahaha.

46:35 the biblical stories are "psychologically true" lol. reminds me of Peterson. and her followup is great on how these twisted definitions of "truth", that people like Peterson peddle, are complete BS.

Starting 35:00 I was thinking about how we can sit here and talk about the Bible as stories inspired by god and not necessarily accurate. But then there's another book that tells similar unbelievable and questionable stories, and that book is the literal word of god, and rejecting it's teaching after reading them means you should be put to death. We think ourselves enlightened behind our computer monitors and smartphones looking at video clips made by people on the other side of the globe, and at the same time there are a billion people on this planet that believe in a 6th century book, written by a merchant, that's the absolute divine word of god, any wisdom derived from this book and it's teachings is considered infallible.
