NEW DOCUMENTARY: THE NATURE OF EXISTENCE
Why do we exist and what are we supposed to do about it? What started the
Universe and was it a mistake? Does God exist and why does he seem so
interested in our sex lives?I wrote the toughest 85 questions I could think of, about our purpose and
the nature of existence, and then asked hundreds of people all over the
globe, such as: Indian holy man Sri Sri Ravi Shankar (The Art of Living),
evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins (The God Delusion), 24th generation
Chinese Taoist Master Zhang Chengda, Stanford physicist Leonard Susskind
(co-discoverer of string theory), wrestler Rob Adonis (founder of Ultimate
Christian Wrestling), confrontational evangelist Brother Jed Smock, novelist
Orson Scott Card (Enders Game), director Irvin Kershner (Star Wars: The
Empire Strikes Back), Stonehenge Druids Rollo Maughfling & King Arthur
Pendragon and many more How would YOU answer?Roger Nygard
