I actually thought Religulous was pretty entertaining, and I quite liked Bill Maher's closing statement for the film:

Quote:
"If the world does come to an end here [in 'ar-Megiddo], or wherever, or if it lives into the future decimated by the effects of a religion-inspired nuclear terrorism, let’s remember what the real problem was: That we learned how to precipitate mass death before we ever got past the neurological disorder of wishing for it.

"That’s it: Grow up, or die."
But let's be clear: Maher's movie was not so much about "religion" as it was about apocalypticism.
