This DVD looks at Gods creation of the Earth and humankind in In Gods Image and at Adam and Eves tasting of the forbidden fruit and subsequent expulsion from Eden in Temptation. Joining Bill Moyers are Rabbi Burton Visotzky, Old Testament scholar Walter Brueggemann, philosopher Leon Kass, artist Hugh ODonnell, Catholic theologian Jean-Pierre Ruiz, psychotherapist Naomi Rosenblatt, biblical translator Stephen Mitchell, Christian historian Robin Darling Young, Princeton Universitys Elaine Pagels, and others. Together they examine issues such as creativity, Gods image, freedom of choice, the nature of good and evil, the meaning of sin, and issues of gender and sexuality. In addition, this disc includes a special video introduction by Mr. Moyers and a menu of chapters, segments derived from the programs that single out important aspects to facilitate instruction and discussion. (120 minutes plus introduction and chapters) Can be viewed using a DVD player or computer DVD-ROM drive.
