Good review in the Sunday Times today (trust me, this is on topic) about Religulous, which seems to sum up some of the posters in this thread (imho) -

"In this documentary by Larry Charles (Borat), the American satirist Bill Maher takes a polemical swipe at religion.
He goes from London to Israel and just about every religious site in between to talk to religious nuts and born-again loons of every persuasion.
His argument is one with which any atheist will be familiar, but by targeting the extreme and eccentric ends of the religious spectrum, Maher has gone for easy targets.
He comes up with the odd funny gag, but you get the feeling that he is as dogmatic about his doubt as the believers are about their faith."
