Zeitgeist: Addendums

The first Zeitgeist documentary (”Zeitgeist: the Movie”) has by far been the most popular documentary on our site, especially because it had bold claims on many issue ranging from “the Jesus story” to the “Federal Reserve fraud”. This follow-up, by Peter Joseph, picks up more on the latter and the main theme can be summarized as how money is made out of thin air (money=debt) and basically we are all slaves running around to pay our debt off.Latter part of this documentary focuses on Jacque Fresco’s Venus Project. He promotes a resource-based economic system and argues that through technology only, we can prosper.

very good, very slick production, goes a lot further than any other “anti-establishment”documentary i have seen except the other zeitgeist. makes a lot of very valid points (relating to religion, government, banks and big business) and has encouraged me to read more on the economic subjects discussed and also to study their website very carefully to see what they are asking people to sign up to as i am extremely cynical about anything of this nature . NO GOD NO MASTER, ANARCHY!

Jesus Christ will return one day
He will be your judge.
He is my savior

The Bible wasn’t written over night or just to tell a story. Over 1500 years ( the time it took for the bible to become complete ) ” just to tell a story ” - GET REAL

Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

You may not care about what the bible say’s about Christ but I will pray ( not in vein ) that you will not see pass the truth. That you are a sinner ( like the rest of the world ) and at this point you may not have to worry about God or Jesus cause you will spend an eternity seperated by him ( God ) in a warm fuzzy place called Hell.

- it’s your choice to except that you have sinned against God and that you deserve Hell.
- Ask God for forgiveness and call upon Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour.
- and if you want to be obiedent to God’s word the Bible - Get baptised - In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

And then start living for God - and do something for him ! because he has done so much for you. ie ( sending his only begotten SON )

Take the step in faith ! and you will see that God is very real - through a personal relationship with his son Jesus Christ - witch most of the world lacks.

Pray - find a local church ( Evangelical ) - Read your Bible
( you will see that God is real - when you begin a relationshit with him )

Mathew 7:14 ( Christ said ) Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

I hope you find it - I will pray that you do and anyone else who read’s this comment. Or that may choose to believe in your film and not the living God -

PK – sadly, u can’t write! Your grammar & spelling r atrocious. & that’s all nonbelievers see of u — your grammar & spelling. U *appear* stupid (I’m NOT saying u r). & boy, they take that appearance of ignorance & laugh, “See! We told u those Christians r utter idiots!” Further, PK, quoting the Bible at people who think it’s a pile of (well, u fill in the blank) is utterly fruitless. “Cast not your pearls be4 swine”, as it were. Yet, Christians always insist on doing that. What has it ever availed? Would u be convinced if someone kept quoting the Koran at u? See what I mean? Finally, to those of u reading this who r non-believers: Don’t make the mistake of thinking u even BEGIN to understand believers, 4 u do NOT understand things of the spirit. You’re like one born blind who, overhearing two physicists discussing the nature of light, shouted, “Fools! Liars! There’s no such thing as light & color! What are u idiots even talking about?!” The scientists just looked at each other, shrugged, & walked away. Non believers r EXACTLY like that blind one – even worse off. 4 the physically sightless can be only so blind, but there’s no end to spiritual blindness. Like the blind person who can’t imagine light & color, u can’t begin to imagine the nature of spirit, & so decide it doesn’t exist, that it’s “foolish” & “irrational” (I especially like that last one!) Uh huh; & light & color don’t exist, either, if u can’t see ‘em. But there’s this difference between u & the physically blind: u *choose* your blindness!

OH, and I realize MY spelling — not my grammar, though — was atrocious. But that was reluctantly deliberate: I felt, to say all I had to say within the space alloted, I had to use “u” for “you”, “4″ for “four” or ‘for”, and so on. Makes me shudder, but there it is. IM-speak — the dumbing down of the world!

Nice vid. Theyve got the fractional reserve definition at the start wrong though.

Shame.

This documentary provided a very biased portrayal of our monetary system. Playing prophetic music while describing something doesn’t make it bad. Our current monetary system has taken the global financial system to levels of efficiency never dreamed of in prior generations. It has freed us from the ineffeciency of a gold standard. Furthermore, it has added a cyclical flexibility to our monetary policy which allows us to more effeciently combat recessions.
The geo-political analysis is better. However, finding relationships between monetary policy and geo-politics is a waste of time. They are totally independent.
