To be clear. I do not practice religon in anyway, nor do i condem it, if you are religious and that is helping you in living a better and happier life, then I'm HAPPY for you, you found something in your life that gives you comfort and makes life a little easier :)
That's what a want for all humans on this planet.
Look, set aside race, religon, jobs, economi, borders etc etc. IT IS HARD BEING A HUMAN BEING, it really really is. Where ever you grow-up or end up.
Look, I try being a good person, i'm not racist, or sexist, If I see something wrong or someone being treated wrong in front of my eyes I intervene, I treat everyone the same until proven otherwise, I have no anger in my heart. I get angry sometimes, I party and hang out with my friends, go to work every day, working generally sucks, but I do it anyway,
seeing people happy is a great feeling, seeing people sad or worse is very very unpleasant.
I did not learn this in a book. I learned it by interacting with all kinds of people through out my life, and just a being part of this world.
Morgan Freeman, is openminded, kind, and respectful in all his encounters with people from all walks of life. WHEN you act this whey torwards people you can ask the heavy questions, the sensitive questions, and get true and honest answer in return.
THE REASON for this is because the question is comming from the right place. And Morgon Freeman does this BRILLIANTLY, he is informed and insightful, and conveys his questions as a true getlemen and a class act all the way.
This is a really interesting documentary on the human condition and our ways of dealing with Prelife - Life - Living - Death - The Afterlife.
To be honest, I don't care what happens after I die. It does not scare me nor does it please me. It is what it is, and it happens when it happens, and I'm OK with that.
Rated it 9/10

The show covers a great deal of topics and different religions and belief systems, but it is quite repetitive. The overall message is very positive and the overall tone is unbiased, but many of the shows repeat the same exact themes and knowledge.
As not a very adherent strict-practicing Hindu, my interest was to know the fundamental evolution of the concept of God along with the evolution of humanity. The series brilliantly takes into considerations the various belief system followed by various religions on the planet. It was very interesting to see the inclusion of the beliefs of natives in various episodes. The series questions various fundamental questions an educated mind can think about. Obviously the series are not for the shut minded believers and may be offensive to them at one or other point, but for a cosmopolitan human being the series really throw light on the very existence of various Human faiths. Kudos for all associated with the series.
Who doesn't like Morgan Freeman??? I had high hopes for this program, but I must say it fell a bit short. Main reason for this is the repetitiveness that the show has. The shows does touch on a few different religions that span the epochs, but really it concentrates on a very small few. If you're looking for a high level understanding of various religions and their dogma and beliefs about god, this will interest you. For those of you who might have wanted a much more detailed account of numerous religions and how they interpret god differently, you might be left wanting as I was.
Morgan Freeman's series is a wonderful attempt to capture religion in an entertaining way. The topic is very complex, and yet Freeman manages to reach the viewer with his storytelling. Each episode has a focus, with everything following an overall concept. I have rarely had such an accessible intellectual conversation.
