god on trial is an original and incendiary spin on the dialogue - fuelled drama which debates with itself in a single, claustrophobic location. predominantly based in a solitary concentration camp barrack, the plot is ostensibly straightforward. the prisoners put god on trial and discuss his incentives for unleashing such disgusting and unwarranted wrath on the jewish people. but as the premise evolves, discussions become increasingly complex and diverse as the prisoners discuss topics ranging from the heavily existential to the arbitrary. god on trial is a sophisticated study of metaphysics as well as an emotionally draining insight into this horrific period of time .

who needs a god who suffers?  is just one of many discomforting questions god on trial dares ask, intending to provoke and challenge believers and nonbelievers alike. the compelling and disturbing television drama, to be broadcast on pbs stations sunday, november 9, is as powerful as anything youll encounter on the stage or big screen this year .

there' s nothing frothy about frank cottrell boyce' s play god on trial (bbc2). god' s on trial, for a start. in auschwitz, too. a group of prisoners, their faith stretched to its limits and beyond by the terrible circumstances they find themselves in, are trying to decide whether the lord has broken his covenant with his chosen people .
two of those questioning the story, rabbi jonathan romain and rabbi dan cohn - sherbok, were advisers to the recent bbc2 film god on trial, which staged the philosophical debate in auschwitz .

jerusalem scholar esther farbstein, author of hidden in thunder: perspectives on faith, halachah and leadership during the holocaust, was asked if there is any record of god being put on trial in auschwitz. mrs farbstein said flatly :
no .
but she added :
there is no question that individuals did put god on trial in their minds, so it is quite plausible that people did have this discussion. but i think it' s a story, because i have never seen such a document testifying to such a trial .
it’s not every day you hear the almighty described as ‘a cheating bastard’. but during bbc2’s god on trial, a demanding 90 - minute drama starring the olivier award - winning actor sir antony sher and written by frank cottrell boyce (welcome to sarajevo), the inmates of auschwitz submit him to an even greater indignity: they put him on trial .
sher is one of the trustees of the holocaust educational trust, which takes british schoolchildren on trips to auschwitz to explain to them what happened there. in a similar way, he hopes that god on trial will introduce this most distressing and provocative of subjects to a wider audience. ‘i think there can never be too much done on the subject of the holocaust, ’ says sher, ‘to stop people like [ discredited historian ] david irving saying it didn’t happen. it’s terribly important that this debate is happening in god on trial, and terribly important that it’s happening on a mass medium like television. ’

and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me, but received me as an angel of god, as christ jesus .
and you did not ridicule, neither did you loathe the trial of my flesh, but you received me as an angel of god and as yeshua the messiah .
there is no historical evidence that such a trial took place. cottrell boyce’s drama is based on a widely repeated second world war story that is most likely apocryphal .
and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of god, even as christ jesus .
yes¯and dont we also put god on trial in all contexts all the time? c. s. lewis, in a 1948 essay called difficulties in presenting the christian faith to modern unbelievers (retitled god in the dock by his editor, walter hooper), wrote: the ancient man approached god... as the accused person approaches his judge. for the modern man the roles are reversed. he is the judge: god is in the dock. he is quite a kindly judge: if god should have a reasonable defence for being the god who permits war, poverty, and disease, he is ready to listen to it. the trial may even end in his acquittal. 
god on trial is a tv movie starring joseph muir, josef altin, and ashley artus. awaiting their inevitable deaths at one of the worst concentration camps, a group of jews make a rabbinical court to decide whether god has gone against the holy covenant and if he is the one guilty for their suffering .
drama. in a block house in auschwitz, a group of prisoners demand to know the nature of a god who can allow so much suffering. they attempt to settle their dispute by putting god on trial. knowing half of them will be sent to the gas chamber, they have only one day to reach a verdict .
and said,' do not be afraid, paul. you must stand trial before caesar; and god has graciously given you the lives of all who sail with you.'

god on trial
feels like an old - fashioned play adapted for television, the sort you used to see quite often - - hal holbrook in

or lee j. cobb in
death of a salesman .
by the subject' s very nature ,
god on trial
is powerfully intellectual, heavy on dialogue, light on action and unfolds almost exclusively in a small, grim barracks where a newly arrived group of prisoners demands that an equal number of the older ones be chosen for extermination .
the victims’ families made a statement on the courthouse steps before the start of the trial in which they urged people to focus on their loved ones. de grood’s parents, douglas and susan de grood, were also in court and sat in the front row .
two academic rabbis, dan cohn - sherbok and jonathan romaine, changed my mind. they introduced me to a long jewish tradition of wrangling with god, going right back to abraham bargaining with him over the destruction of sodom, and forward to elie weisel' s famous declaration that god was hanged on the gallows in auschwitz. here were people talking to god on a frequency that wasn' t on my dial. the trial of god would not have been some blasphemous aberration, but something in the tradition of the psalms, the book of job and even christ' s terrible accusing cry from the cross :
why have you forsaken me ?
what are you praying for? ... anyone else trying to help god make his mind up? ... hes an evil b¯¯. he should be here. with us. well put the b¯¯ on trial. then maybe hell hear it. 
and if you think this tale is intended for jews alone, dont tell that to frank cottrell boyce, from whose pen the intelligent and provocative script flowed. boyce, whose previous scripts include welcome to sarajevo and hillary and jackie, is not even jewish but a believing catholic. he drew inspiration for his drama from an event depicted by elie wiesel in his play the trial of god. wiesel contends he had witnessed such a trial as a child in the death camps. but wiesels version transplants the debate to seventeenth - century russia, in the wake of a pogrom. boyce, however, argues that the original story is apocryphal, that no such trial of god by auschwitz prisoners ever took place. but that is neither here nor there.  god on trial isnt a jewish issue,  says boyce. its a question about god and who god is, something that people are asking themselves in all contexts all the time.

according to sher, who plays akiba, a polish rabbi who remains silent for the first hour of the trial and is then the final ‘witness’ to give evidence, there are no straightforward answers. ‘god on trial is a very powerful and unsettling piece, ’ he says. ‘each of the characters’ speeches is so convincing. i think the viewers are going to find themselves swinging back and forth between the different arguments. ’
and he said,' don' t be afraid, paul, for you will surely stand trial before caesar! what' s more, god in his goodness has granted safety to everyone sailing with you.'
and although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise me or reject me. instead, you welcomed me as if i were an angel of god, as if i were christ jesus himself .
three years on, the result, called god on trial, airs on bbc2 early next month. as courtroom dramas go, the story has its drawbacks: the accused is not going to break down under cross - examination, or confess all in tears. on the other hand, as redhead pointed out, both the world trade centre attacks and the boxing day tsunami had seemed - in their different ways - to put god back on the world stage and raise again old questions about justice and suffering. the timing was right, but i wasn' t sure about his choice of writer. nearly any other screenwriter in the country would have been only too happy to dawkins up some diatribe about the badness of god. but as a catholic, i' m actually quite fond of him and felt uncomfortable about acting for the prosecution .
god on trial
is a complicated and challenging film to watch. frank cottrell boyce has crafted a brilliant script, which doesn' t only look at why god would inflict such horrible things on the jews while allowing hitler and his henchmen to live. although specifically about jewish prisoners during world war ii, the film has universal appeal in the fundamental questions of existence that every human being has to ask, even minimally, at one point or other in his or her life .

the director andy de emmony (kenneth williams: fantabulosa !) heightened the tension by recording the trial in 20 - minute takes, and by shooting scenes from several angles at once. ‘andy was filming with three cameras, ’ says sher, ‘which were semi - hidden among the extras on the bunk beds. he wanted to create a sense of eavesdropping on the trial and, with the three cameras, the actors had to commit totally all the time because, regardless of who was speaking, you didn’t know whether you were on camera. ’

that they are wonderful, riveting and at times difficult to watch is no surprise, and if their utter britishness - - no attempts at other european accents here - - is a bit jarring at first, it is soon forgotten. for although the various arguments made during

focuses on the emotional and philosophical rather than the physical brutality of the death camp, but even a glimpse of the eerie, haunting museum it has become provides the necessary sensual outrage .
is his breach of contract habitual?  asks baumgarten. are you defending god or attacking him? 
the professional atheists publishing today want us to believe that there is no god because the god of the bible is not good as they understand goodness. but one does not necessarily follow from the other. what if there is a god, and he is simply beyond good and evil? who hasnt seen the suffering of a child or an elderly parent and said, if only i had the power... .  but god does have the power. wouldnt most of us have mercy on the most vulnerable¯the very young and the very old? cant it be argued persuasively, as rabbi akiba goes on to do, that we have a higher sense of justice in our hearts than does this god we jews and christians worship ?

“he was so ill looking that the pediatrician on call was uncomfortable providing the resuscitative care that was necessary, ” white said .
although the subject of the guilt of god is universal, when it came to writing i confined myself to imagining this particular trial: the problems of setting up a court in a blockhouse, the kind of arguments that those men might have advanced. i focused on the covenant, god' s special deal with the jewish people. i thought i was doing this to keep faith with the story - but maybe i was also doing it to distance it from my own spiritual life. the magic of stories, though, is that the more specific you are, the more universal they seem to get. the covenant turned out to be a really good way of talking about anyone who expects anything from god .
lamb of god frontman randy blythe has been indicted on manslaughter charges in the czech republic, according to the band’s manager, larry mazer. blythe faced charges tied to a 2010 incident in prague when a fan who repeatedly came onstage was pushed, fell and eventually died. blythe has also maintained that if he were to be charged, he would return to the czech republic to stand trial, and mazer confirmed blythe will defend himself in the case .
back in the blockhouse, moche (dominic cooper), proposes convening a rabbinical court to determine whether god is guilty of neglecting his chosen people. the very idea of the court is blasphemous to kuhn (jack shepherd), while his son mordechai (rupert graves) volunteers to be the chief prosecutor in the trial .

the trials of god are a series of tests designed by god himself, in order to seal the gates of hell. the three trials involve bathing in hellhound blood, saving an innocent soul from hell, and curing a demon. during these trials the health of the one doing them rapidly decreases. according to castiel, sam' s participation in the trials of god had affected him at a subatomic level .

with the jewish people. the fact that what would be known as the holocaust is occurring is evidence that, for now at least, god is no longer siding with the jews. still others contend that god is simply guilty of abandoning his people. a french scientist cites the existence of hundreds of millions of stars in the universe, each of which, perhaps, has its own solar system. do the inmates of the camp believe that, with all of that to tend to, god really pays minute attention to the events on one small ball of rock ?

for kuhn, it is a test. a test of our faith. the light of torah must be kept burning in dark times.  rather than examining god, they should be examining themselves, for sin. some jews have turned their back on the torah. they thought they knew better... they became socialists or zionists or capitalists or anarchists. god knows what. forgetting everything of the precious scriptures.

during the trial, held in an auschwitz dormitory hut the night before half the prisoners will be gassed, a disparate cast of characters – including a physicist, a law professor, a criminal and two rabbis – debate the charges levelled against god. in allowing the nazis to commit genocide, has he broken his covenant with the jewish people? is the holocaust an act of purification, like noah’s flood? or is it evidence, as writer and holocaust survivor primo levi argued, that god does not – indeed cannot – exist ?
this really is a groundbreaking book. robert sutherland, a lawyer, explains his theory that the old testament biblical book of job is about job taking god to court for not keeping his promises (i. e. god promises to bless righteous people .) for very many reasons i believe this theory makes sense. the book of job really is significant because it deals with one of modern atheism' s great historical objections to faith in god - that the innocent suffer in a world that a good god has created. in my opinion this book explains clearly what the book of job meant in the cultural context in which it was written. sutherland uses these insights to clarify what it might mean to us today as well. one of the best books on job i have ever read .

mr wiesel, 80, made the story the subject of a 1977 play, the trial of god, although he did not set it during the holocaust - his play takes place during purim in 1649. the story is the subject of a famous midrash, or biblical commentary. many people have assumed that the story was a way for those of faith to try to make sense of the holocaust .
but when the jc put their doubts to mr wiesel on wednesday, he replied :
why should they know what happened? i was the only one there. it happened at night; there were just three people. at the end of the trial, they used the word chayav, rather than ‘guilty'. it means ‘he owes us something'. then we went to pray .

in a universe presumably ruled by a benevolent, all - powerful god, how can events such as the holocaust possibly come to pass? this is the question posed by a group of inmates in auschwitz, the third reich' s most notorious death camp, in this reflective war drama written by frank cottrell boyce (millions, code 46), and directed by andy deemmony (filth: the mary whitehouse story). realizing that their extermination is imminent, the prisoners attempt to make sense of their fate by putting god on trial. how is it that the deity they call the almighty could abandon his chosen people in their hour of need? as the sound of prisoners being marched to the gas chambers drifts hauntingly through the walls, the trial gets underway. the questions posed during the inquest are profoundly difficult and deeply complex, and as the hour draws near when they, too, will face death at the hands of their captors, the thoughtful prisoners finally reach a verdict. ~ jason buchanan, rovi

there is much to learn from the story of how the head of one of the most revered men in england, sir thomas more, ended up on the chopping block on london' s tower hill in 1535. few people in history have faced their trials and deaths as squarely, calmly, and with as much integrity as did more .
is the reading of the best manuscripts, and, as the more difficult one, was the one most likely to be tampered with; it is accordingly accepted by recent editors with great unanimity .
my trial
would add to the sentence a tinge of pathetic self - commiseration .
your trial
brings out the sentiment how greatly his affliction would be likely to indispose his hearers to listen to his message; it
tested
very severely the sincerity and depth of their religious sensibility .
“a fourth male victim was found lying in a fetal position on a couch while a male kept pressure to the wound to his neck. this victim was also deceased. ”
it is here that science, reason, takes the stand in the person of jacques, a physicist who accuses his fellow prisoners of being childish. is it reasonable to believe that the same god who created hundreds of millions of stars has focused his attention only on one little planet? and not even on one planet? no, just with the jews.  jacques introduces a brief sociology of religion. from polytheism to monotheism to monomania: its all about power. and you have lost. someone had a better idea. hitler had the idea. there is one god¯and it is me... . i ask you to look at things not like babies, but like men. use your reason. 
it' s a bit silly but quite fun, in a jolly, frothy kind of way. life on mars basically, but going back a bit further - so lacy frocks and the aforementioned bulging breeches instead of flares and brown leather jackets, tinkling pianos instead of bowie, and the crunch of carriage wheel on gravel instead of the screech of a cornering mark 1 cortina. life on mars for girls, in other words, because it is a truth universally acknowledged that women like jane austen better than what fellas do .
during the holocaust, a group of auschwitz prisoners decided to put god in the dock. when frank cottrell boyce wrote a film about it, he began to question his own catholic faith

the camps tried to reduce individuals to components in a project. in the end, they did that literally. what good stories do is the opposite. they say the human is irreducible. tobias wolff has described the story of the prodigal son as
surely the most beautiful thing ever written
. no one hears it without feeling the conflict between the need to do right by the eldest son, and the need to express the overwhelming love you feel for the lost one, now returned. the father is nothing without the son. that contradiction is crucial. i' m hoping that god on trial is a mirror image of that story. only this time it was god who seemed to go away, and people who - inexplicably perhaps - were prepared to rush out to welcome him back.
