Squirrels Can’t Answer Life’s Big Questions. WonderCafe Can

United Church of Canada’s WonderCafe, “home of open-minded discussion and exploration of spiritual topics, moral issues and life’s big questions,” has, with help from Smith Roberts and UNTITLED, launched a viral-intended video called E-Z Squirrel. In the video, a squirrel is asked simple yes or no questions until he’s asked, “which one of the gospels do you think resonates most in relation to the modern world in which we live?” The squirrel answers “yes” leaving the questioner a bit stumped – which is the entire point of the video. When you have want to explore life’s big questions a bit deeper, don’t ask a squirrel. Go to WonderCafe instead. It’s clear. It’s simple. It’s funny. It works.
