Publisher's Synopsis
Gus Holwerda directs this documentary following scientists Richard Dawkins and Lawrence Krauss around the world as they lecture on the importance of reason over religious values. In a world in which Islamic terrorism and many other conflicts are driven or justified by religious rhetoric, the dangers of doctrinal belief are clear. Dawkins and Krauss argue passionately that reason should govern social and political decisions rather than belief. Celebrities who support their point of view, including Ricky Gervais, Stephen Hawking, Sarah Silverman, Werner Herzog and Cormac McCarthy, also contribute.
