Thanksgiving Religious Debate - All in the Family
Loading...
Uploaded by riversonthemoon on Jun 4, 2009
This is a selection of clips from an episode of America's most popular TV show of the 1970's - All in the Family. The episode was in Season 6 and was titled 'The Little Atheist'. In this episode, Mike Stivic (an atheist) and his wife Gloria are expecting a baby and they are adamant about letting the child decide for itself whether it will follow a religion or not. Gloria's father, Archie Bunker, has other ideas, and at Thanksgiving dinner an argument ensues.
Enjoy.
You can find the whole episode in three parts here:

My US subscribers will no doubt be familiar with the show, but for the benefit of my non-US subs and younger subs who don't know much about the show, here is the wikipedia link:

Mike and Archie often had humorous religious debates on the show, and if this video does well, I will post more of them.

@johnnywalker1974 - more true to say there are only atheists in foxholes because otherwise why take cover?

@Gordonisgreat Disrespectful? To simply feel differently than other people? That is ridiculous. And If I were in a foxhole, I would have more reason to be an Atheist-as I sure wouldn't much feel like something were looking out for me. It's not true just because you say it. Peace to you.

This show had major balls. I wish they would tackle these subjects today.

Holy crap, they were airing this stuff back when there was only a few channels to watch!? That is awesome! Too bad now adays its concidered social suicide to mention Atheist ideas on television. You know what I say? Pthththt to god. ^_^
