    It's rather entertaining, basically an Austrailian atheist and his buddy doing what Mormons do best; cycling around in shirts and preaching door to door.

    Sadly, they are not shown the same level of respect I would assume most atheists would show them, though I notice a small sample size might skew this slightly.

    About time someone did this. Might start a new fad ... one can hope anyway.

    In fairness though the comedian does use the specific arguments that are likely to drive the average bible-thumper into a frothing rage. Calling their ancestors monkeys, saying "god doesnt exist" and confronting them with the amount of time they have wasted in their lives - while all essentially true - is only going to annoy them and get the angry responses we see in the video.

    That said, it's hardly an excuse and the old guy with the broom should have been prosecuted for assault and a religiously motivated offense ...

    ... hey, what goes around comes around no?

    "don't knock on my door before 11am on Saturday morning!"

    ahem, brother.

    For example, did you know that your relatives were monkeys?

    the rest of his series is awesome, he spends a while at a japanese zen buddhist temple and the head monk fellow keeps hitting him with a stick.

    classic television.
