This week, we discuss the Netflix Original film “The Wonder” starring Florence Pugh. The film is about a young girl in Ireland who may be a miracle and the woman who is sent to help determine if that is the case. Aside from a really weird framing structure that begins and ends the film, it is a good movie but more importantly, it provides some fertile ground for discussion of how fanaticism can poison people to the point of doing real harm. We do spoil the movie so you may want to watch it first but if you are just interested in atheists talking about religious themes, that’s what we are talking about for the most part!
