In God's Name

 About

In God's Name explores the nature of cults, the evolutionary fitness of gullibility, and the joys of being a part of something, though it doesn't always work out in the long run. While many belief structures may seem ridiculous to outsiders, it would be tough to beat the doosies assembled here by filmmaker Kia Simon. Holy John is waiting for a flood, Hon-Ming for a nuclear war, and Brother Meade for cement trucks. Kia Simon was one of ten filmmakers invited by the Bumbershoot/One Reel Festival to make a film on a theme for their 2004 festival. In God's Name played in an evening of films on the topic "What in the name of God?"
