More Detail:
The “Beyond Death” episode of THE STORY OF GOD gives a fair treatment to the historic and scriptural narrative of Christ. However, it’s bookended by paganism and a syncretistic view of religion where everyone is right. Of course, if all religious beliefs are true, then nothing is true.
The approach Freeman takes to exploring God is both dangerous and unhelpful. THE STORY OF GOD may hold some educational merit, but Freeman never manages to go beyond the surface of what his interviewees have to say. It’s not particularly enlightening. Extreme caution is advised because of the program’s defense and depiction of false and dangerous religions.
