Excellent documentary on how Christianity was started and grew, and all the conflicts over 2,000 years

Did Jesus exist?

Cameron Reilly has created a fantastic historical analysis of how Christianity was formed, grew, and the internal conflicts inside the religion. There are fantastic interviews with many notable religious studies and history professors from around the world.

This is a wonderful scholarly work, and really casts new light on to the development of who wrote the bible, when, and how this evolved over 2,000 years. Discussions of how Judaism and Christianity are fascinating.

Highly recommended. Also there are many funny parts. It is really an engaging movie for anyone who enjoys history, religion, etc. This is not boring, it is a really fun movie and will intrigue you and educate you. Great for any night of the week.

Not really 10/10 but doing this to offset the offended Christians

It's OK. I feel like the documentary made a lot of sense. I need to check the verses that they quote and probably should go through all of the Bible first but in any case I found it fairly thought provoking.

I came here to check the reviews and saw some ppl who have been offended by this and consider it "fake news". I don't think it's fake news I think it gives a fairly balanced approach to the reality of the situation.

My true rating is probably 7.5/10. It's good, worth a watch but won't say anything you didn't already knew.

Not perfect, but bloody good

An insightful look at early Christian beginnings. Bound to upset those who believe in the view that the Bible is literal.

Be warned Cameron does have a topically Australian sense of humour which may run some people the wrong way. Thank the Lord.

Informative but Missed Opportunity

I actually learned quite a bit from the film, but was very off-put by the cringe humor. Maybe you need to be Australian... however, it was refreshing (as an American) to see someone other than Ken Ham speak about the Bible with that accent. I would much prefer less movie references and the animations to support the information being presented by the experts, not as silly gags. (Score is weighted to balance grumpy Christians)
