I dunno, Will... I'm NOT the target here, in fact I'm the intended demographic, and I still think the things I saw in this trailer are pretty unfair.
Asking someone to explain their religious views is like asking them to bring a inflatable toy knife to a gunfight. Religious views exist outside explanation. I think that some religious people are easily gulled into the trap of trying to explain themselves, and end up looking like complete jackasses--because religion IS illogical and inexplicable, and the slightest application of logic makes it vaporize into a cloud of silliness. Not because it IS silly, but because faith doesn't inhabit the realm of logic and explanation.
I don't really understand the movement by contemporary Atheists to try to talk people out of their religious. Talk about tilting at windmills! They may as well be speaking Chinese, for all the good that will do.
