      I saw your other comment about WA: I'm not sure "nihilist" covers it, though. Those people usually claim (however accurately) to reject any kind of morality. WA's films are very much concerned with moral choices, regardless of the source of morality, which for him would not be God-given--definitely an atheist. But there's a Catholic priest who is a film scholar--forget his name but he was in the WA doc a few years back--who I think rightly put WA with Camus as atheists who concerned themselves with what one could say are religious questions, if existential and moral questions are also religious, which they are to some extent. A real nihilist would be someone like De Sade or maybe even Nietzsche (not sure about that last one)--it's almost always a pose, really. Non-theists, for lack of a better term, almost all to a person accept morality as commonly understood--they just think it is a species characteristic, not God-given. But from there, all (sane) people can agree, yes, do unto others...etc. It keeps coming up in tradition after tradition all over the world, after all.
      Having said that, I did find your comment touching because it's clear you mean it with love and kindness--you want WA to have the comfort you have found in Jesus. And if Jesus isn't about love and kindness, I misread the New Testament.
      It bugs me that New Atheists often get offended by such things. I'm not New about it--lifelong atheist (father was, so it was an option that I later ratified when I could make a choice); hilariously enough, many (most?) New Atheists mirror the very things they decry in what they should say are certain *types* of religious people. And New Atheists often have the zeal of the converted. Which is amusing--as much as the fact that they often know zero about actual really-existing religion. In fact, exasperatingly, they cede its definition to the most fundamentalist types available which is the very definition of helping your enemy, along with being simply wrong.
      Sorry to go on! I like this kind of stuff.
      My view is that people should judge others by their actions, not their professed beliefs. If I could press a button and make everyone on earth but me like MLK, Jr, I'd happily press it. I care what people do, not what they profess or why they think they do it. Stalin was an atheist. I don't dig Stalin. :)
      The key enemy is tribalism: however dressed up in intellectual, religious, social, political, nationalist--you name it--terms. That's what's killing us.
      Cheers! :)

Your God-like dictatorial claim, of self-empowering decision making, in one's behalf, to make the choice to impose the dogma of MLK, jr. on anyone, is inconsistent and hence, the illogical lynchpin in your otherwise remarkably well developed thesis.

This was a good segment filmed back in the day when Woody was a fresh face who hadn't made it yet but was close. They were both comedy writers who became stand up comedians. BTW do you recognize the jacket? I think Woody wore that same jacket for at least 30 years.

    The more Woody Allen answers questions of the audience, the more his inherent creepiness comes out. Someone once asked him what his ideal woman would be like, and instead of saying "someone smart, funny, creative and lovely", he answered "a girl who would let me do whatever I wanted to her, whenever I want it". This got an uncomfortable laugh from the audience, but think about what he is saying here. And he said it in the early 1970s, on a daytime talk show.
    To Allen, his ideal partner is a passive sex partner who will "let him" do whatever he wants to her, whenever he wants it. So sex isn't something both actively participate in, it's something "done to" a woman, who accepts it without complaint.
    Woody Allen told us who he was a long, long time ago....

    He's got no shame whatsoever. He's a creep, and he's unfortunately very hilarious. Weird.

    I so cannot stand Dick Cavett I can't even watch for five seconds while he occasionally asks a question.
