...cause of so much turmoil, so much war, and, let’s face it, so much awkward porn. (Note: “Religulous” is rated R, and includes footage of white-robed and habit-clad porn stars sucking on each others’ nipples). Despite Maher??s characteristic self-absorption and hypocritical dogmatism, he clearly did his homework, and he proves to be an effective renegade...

After watching Bill Maher??s new documentary about the ridiculousness of religion, appropriately titled “Religulous,” it’s hard not to agree with Maher that religion is analogous to a “giant space penis.” This idea stems from a small rural community in England where the citizens diligently maintain a shrubbery-outlined figure of a man with an epic erection on a grassy hillside overlooking the town.
