A Brief History of Disbelief


This week on BILL MOYERS JOURNAL, Bill Moyers talks with Jonathan Miller about his upcoming series and his views on religion in the modern world.

Jonathan Miller’s series “A Brief History of Disbelief” will air on many PBS stations across the country starting May 4.

To find out when it is airing where you live click here or check with your local public television station.

Miller, referring to the events of 9/11, states:

The conspicuous absence of the the Twin Towers involving, as it does, the inherent conflicts between Christianity, Islam and Judaism, is I think one of the most powerful expressions of religious fanaticism in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

What do you think?

  • -Where does religious fanaticism come from?

  • -Is ever there such as thing as too much belief?
