In this episode we talk about evolution, genetics, and even
the touchy subject of religion with author of Evolution 2.0, Perry Marshall.
However, given that the
subject is, to say the least,
touchy, the fact that this film was even made is worthy
of at least some kudos to Maher for having the guts to potentially offend the vast majority
of people in the country, and perhaps the world, with his expression
of doubt in their beliefs and his own belief that, though many individuals have found great benefit from the ancient scriptures,
religion ultimately does more harm than good when looking at it in its totality from a global historical scale.
In terms
of topics
of conversation, World War II, communism,
religion, and relations with Germany and Russia might be
touchy subjects to some.
