Hollywood hardly ever mentions a word about anything religious related...
As article explains:
Quote:Whether it be by questioning, satirizing, pointing out faults, or simply making light of the whole kit and caboodle, the following atheist-friendly movies have done their own small parts in bringing religion down a peg while putting science and skepticism in the limelight.
Now don't get me wrong—there are very few atheists out there who would completely condemn (or outright refuse to watch) any film based solely on the fact that it has religious undertones, or even one that's completely religious in nature. But every once in a while it is a breath of fresh air for a rationalist to see a film with the brass to stand up and call out religion for what it is, and/or give secularism, science, and reason a voice.
The pickings may be slim but, believe it or not, these movies are out there. One just need know where to look.
Another movie I remembered is a documentary about KKK "Blood in the Face" (1991)
This movie was done by a guy that was teaching Michael Moore how to make movies and Moore was the only one that had guts to talk to this people on camera so you can hear his voice.
So this movie is about KKK gathering and as you look at it they are Christians that are simply more frightened of blacks and Jews then your regular BLM phobic conservative. They are mostly creationists and they believe KKK is all about love for white people. They believe that Adam means white and so on.
Soooooo, it's not "atheist friendly", it's "anti religious folks."
Interesting. I thought atheism wasn't defined by its opposition to Christianity or any other faith....
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
