However, I've been an atheist all my life, so I can't say that it has personally influenced my atheism one way or another.
The film will be exploring the correlation between internet growth and religious decline. In other words, how the freedom of information isn't healthy for religions.
The crew and I really could do with as much help as possible as the project is fully independent, we don't have any prior contact with big name atheists, we are funding this our selves and all while trying to do other jobs.
So if there is anything anyone could do to help this project please contact me.
We also now have a information booklet. If you are interested I can e-mail a copy of to you. Thanks.
I'd also love some input regarding the idea its self.
Would you had thought the net could have a negative impact on religious institutions? How much do thou think the internet has influenced your relationship or lack there of with faith?
Lastly, I'd like thoughts on the title:
'Why Google Killed God'
A more accurate title would be "How Google Killed God". Google itself is not sentient (although sometimes it feels that way), and cannot consciously "kill" anything, so it has no motivation behind "killing God".
If you need any help with editing, subtitling, etc. I am trained in digital media and can help you with that. I cannot get you any big name atheists to interview because I personally do not know any. I would suggest going to atheist conventions and just trying to corner the speakers and ask them if they'd be willing to be interviewed. You can also try emailing big names and calling them. Maybe you'll get lucky.
I see your point but something does not need to be sentient to have a relevant 'why' asked. For example, Why did google kill god? Because its a force that is counterintuitive to the mechanisms that keep religions working smoothly.
Thank you very much, I appreciate the support. We actually are looking for editors. Drop me an e-mail here with your showreel:

Myself and the producer have agreed that would certainly be a good direction to go, we'll hopefully be going to some soon.
I feel things went slightly off subject in my absence.
