God on Trial Transcript First, I want to ask you what you thought of the film: What were your thoughts about the film? Then, please answer the questions below • What prompted the prisoners to set up the mock-trial? • What philosophical questions do the prisoners ask in this film? • How would an Existentialist philosopher respond to the arguments presented during "the trial"? What would the philosopher tell the prisoners who believe in God, and what would the philosopher tell the prisoners who do not believe in God? • Does Existentialism ask the same questions that we (contemporary Americans) still ask about the meaning of life? Explain. (This article from The New York Times, "Meanwhile: Jean-Paul Sartre at 100: Still troubling us today,” (Links to an external site.)might help you form some insights.)
