Dear People of the World (formerly Dear Americans)

The story is about debate between a dedicated Christian college student and an atheist college professor.

The professor demanded all the students in his course to write "God is dead" following Nietzche words.

But one student protested. Then he was told to explain why he did to the class.

In the end, Christian prevailed and atheists were portrayed as evil.

First half of the film, I was very attracted to the theme of the film but latter half, I found that I had been deceived.

It seems for Christians, atheists are immoral people. Is Christianity so divine? Maybe for westerners, it is foundation of the society. But not for atheist, polytheist Shinto, Budhist or sometimes Christian Japanese like me.

However, it was great opportunity to learn how conservative Christians think about their own faith.

For them, Christian is superior to any other religion. Once one joins Christian organization, it doesn't matter if s/he has different background and they help each other.

It gives them happier life than others.

But scary thing is being big on it could somtimes lead to oppressing others. Once one believes in Jesus Christ, others would be just evils. Among them, atheists, who don't have faith at all are worst. That means such people are to be persecuted.

But didn't Jesus Christ say "Love your neighbors"? Only within their community?
