Religulous is a low-budget film, shot on the fly, with a minimal crew. Part of the whole D.I.Y. indie film movement. So why not fire back in the same way--unscripted, unrehearsed, and very low fi? Isn't that what it means to be conversant?

My sharp friends, C. J. Casciotta and Elle Griswold, met me in Pasadena to see Religulous on opening day. Ace cameraman Evan Christensen followed our conversation. And now you have it--a video response to Bill Maher's unfair fight, Religulous. So join our conversation and fire back with your own response--get conversant!

Here's the third part of three conversations I had with Peter from ConversantLife.com. We discussed the tension around art and images in my new book "A Purple State of Mind: Finding Middle Ground in A Divided Culture." I hope you enjoy this conversation.

So I will soon be taking my feature documentary, PURPLE STATE OF MIND, on the road. John Marks and I roomed together at Davidson College, twenty five years ago. We've taken our divergent faith journeys as the starting point for a documentary about America, circa 2008. John and I talk about everything friends are supposed to avoid--art, religion, sex and politics. Join us on the road or purchase a preview screener on DVD at: www.purplestateofmind.com
