Zeitgeist The Movie - Documentary And Review

This is the movie that everyone needs to see. While many will refute a lot of the 9/11 evidence brought to the attention of the viewer the ultimate message is one that is important. In true documentary and Orwellian style, the message of an impending new world order id driven home. There is no doubt an element of sensationalism to the Zeitgeist documentary but is clearly being used for the greater good. This documentary brings together conclusively the facts and essential message of the “freedom to fascism” documentary and the “manufacturing consent” documentary. I would recommend you watch both these documentaries either before or after watching Zeitgeist the movie. Spread the word about this documentary, it is not another “Why the world hates America” documentary but an absolutely critical and time sensitive message that needs to be received in a globally dumbed down society.

I wonder what more it will take to get this thought-provoking information to the world. After seeing this, it will take more of a movement, given what media outlets we now have.

The Religion part doesn’t make sense - about Jesus that is. What about the Evidence (Not the Bible) that he existed - a person, a human. There are hundreds of different texts writtin at the time of Jesus. This is flawed.

wow, what a load of shit! the religion part is a joke! its funny how the whole documentary is based around getting facts straight and not believing lies yet the whole first half of this documentary is speeling nothing but opinion, manipulative conjecture lack of real fact and lies. its a great piece of hypocratic bullshit trying to state that its truth.
There is more evidence and prrof that jesus was alive then any other man in history, thousands of texts, everytime you write the date you are declaring the existence of christ, No one has ever proved the bible wrong, 87% of all prophecies in the bible have come true, and the other 13% havent happened yet. It is scientifcially and archeologically sound. its very badly researched and is doing exactly what it is preaching against, myth and deception.
the rest of it was interesting enough though

All parts are profound in that it is telling the truth of what is…It amazes me how gullable and nieve and brainwashed they are that they refuse the truth of what is…WAKE UP PEOPLE!! The new age; the Age of Aquarius is arriving whether you like it or not, I dare one person instead of judging or critizing this video, to truly go and do your research for yourself and you will see the truth…People will perish for a lack of knowledge and truth…The Jesus Story is a lie! He is not real, it is a fabrication!!

I think the ending with the references to love conquering all and the one organism talk just don’t cut it with what precedes.

The last overvoice says that it is a choice between love and fear, and it states “The Revolution is Now”… What now, we go out and love these schemers back?

There aren’t many references throughout the doc, and so I will firstly need to search for discussions on the reliability of some of the premises made here. So should you, if I already haven’t for you. I will also be trying to find resources that suggests ways of “fighting”(yes) back. Please share your own findings too.

Cause without that, this is nothing else than intellectuals’ media entertainment. It is no help if we complain to each other.

But then again, living in a very conservative country like Turkey, I can’t picture what would become of a person who publishes the like of that God cartoon. (I edited this last sentence several for the fear of being convicted… just in case). Looking up to you guys in the west is just too pathetic, isn’t it?

Hope I could be braver…

” . . . 87% of all prophecies in the bible have come true.” I am told that there are 2500 prophecies in the Bible and 2000 have come true. Of course the proof is in the Bible itself, for some of it, which is no proof whatsoever due to a form of circular logic.

Another website says 1000 prophesies are in the Bible.

What I find ironic is the fact that the film totally discredits the existance of jesus christ and the teachings of the bible but most of the things it disusses like, new world order, the chip, etc… is exactly what is predicted in Revelations. No doubt all of this is going to happen. It will only get worse before it gets better.

Well, was excited to see something that at least tried to grapple with fact…but this ’shockumentary’ is just plain ridiculous. As soon as it started trying to tell me that Horus and Attis basically had the same stories as Jesus I did a search and wouldn’t you know it, not one other website seems to agree that either were born of a virgin, nor born on december 25th (which is hard to believe anyway considering that date is part of a calendar system that didn’t acutally exist at the time….and in fact Jesus wasn’t actually born on December 25th anyway…His birthday has been moved around several times by various rulers in the past)…Anyways, I could go on but what is the need.

It just gets me so angry when people waste everyone’s times with utter drivel such as the supposed documentary. How am I to trust anything else it says if they can’t even get the facts straight from the outset?

Jay
Jul 20, 2008 18:03

Having said what I said before, the rest of the documentary is worth a watch…although I cannot vouch for it’s authenticity, it is plausible and I will be trying to verify these claims in the future (especially the information the Central bank)

This is one of the top documentary I’ve seen. It brings a lot of things into light and makes you wonder about some of the things we have always accepted as facts. I think the documentary has really achieved its purpose by planting a seed into the viewer to question these ‘facts’ and even the ‘evidence’ presented in this film itself.

Overall, a very entertaining and informative documentary.

sad indeed, human nature is truly a disgrace.
we should set a limit for the wealth people can have
and seriously make a reform on human morals and values.

those values in which we build our perspective of the world
and that shape the actions we take when problems and
opportunities are presented to us.

“me-shih-co” is an old aztec word that means
the unification of all human kind, where everyone lives in
harmony and war does not exist. the status of human kind
being together and push towards the arts, science and betterment
of society as well as the well being of all earthlings.

where people can finally reach their spirituality and be one with
the universe and stop fighting over trivialities like personal wealth.

since we all die, the true wealth lies on how we live.

this later became the country’s name because of its pretty meaning.
sadly, this is far from happening.

it is a great document, and I definitely believe there are things that are
right and wrong in it. like in any other thing.

even when we speak about something that happened to us.
really, what we are speaking is not what happened, but simply a self interpretation
of what we experienced.

am not standing on any side here, but I actually feel really happy because
I think there is people out there that wants the truth, and that is a good sign!

after all history is nothing but a collection of facts that should be treated with
care, honesty and responsibility. Sadly this is not always the case.

and even when it is, it isn’t always as accurate as we hope.

An entirely different think on present scenario and possibly of future as well. I had never been interested going US, due to similar reasons.

And do believe me, if the future projection of this documentary is really the way shown, which i believe, will be something similar, MAN will be just a SLAVE!

Over the centuries Mithraism spread to Greece and Ancient Rome via Asia Minor, gaining popularity within the ranks of the Roman army. In the 4th century AD as a result of errors made in calculating leap years and dates, the birthday of Mithra was transferred to 25 December. Until then Christ’s birthday had been celebrated on 6 January by all branches of the Christian Church. But with the cult of Mithra still popular in Roman Europe, the Christian Church adopted many of the Mithraic rituals and proclaimed 25 December as the official birthday of Christ. Today the Armenian and Eastern Orthodox Churches continue to celebrate 6 January as Christ’s birthday.

This was an amazing doc. After reading through some of the comments I can’t help but notice many of you think they are trying to convince you Jesus didn’t excist. Thats not what I got out of it at all. Sure it seems like thats what they r proving but from what I got out of it was the fact that over 100 million people believe thoroughly in a book and a man to run their lives. I think they were just trying to prove the point of how easily we are manipulated as human beings. Like for instance if this doc was made about an event that happened in the muslam world they would be trying to prove the coran was all a farce. But as it was American they focused on the most popular religion in America, for obvious reasons that you would relate to it.
I don’t agree with their depiction of the bible and jesus and I don’t disagree with it. All I know is there no book in the world that will tell me how to run my life and put barriers on how I live my day to day. As for the rest of the doc sure not a lot of it was proven but just do some research about banking and how it works, this fucking shit blew my mind.
And finally I dunno bout anyone out there but they will have to knock me out fucking cold befor anyone puts a micro chip in me for ID and tracking.

To Jon:

Actually, Jesus is one of the few religious-historical personaes who we cant find 1 single evidence of. Not one of several hundred writes in the days of Jesus has any text about him. Not one document has ever been found, written by a known writer. This documentary complete rips religion apart, we understand you feel the need to go offensive. But you failed.

Excellent docu. I am reallly sad about mankind. Only after ending school I found myself really loving to learn new things.
So there is my advice. Do not watch TV-News,serials and similar crap. You are just wasting your pressures time. Try to educate yourself. It doesnt matter in which field.
Have a nice day.

Oct 23, 2008 15:55

It is abundantly clear to me that the citizens of the United States need to dramatically improve their education system. By improving education, religion will be treated with the acknowledgement of being an ancient, irrelevant series of false beliefs.
The more educated minds may then, enquire as to the practices of their current government and bankers.

Fantastic documentary, although yes, scary.. Is depressing to think how dummed down our society as become, now we have the massive task of deciding what to do with this knowledge.
Zeitgeist Addendum is the 2nd instillation documentary. It is absolutely incredible. a must see for anyone anywhere in the world. Show your friends, family, everyone you know deserves to see this documentary..even if they do not believe they should have the chance to at least view it.

The first part of this documentary has been criticized widely. It doesn’t bother me much. It might be a bit over the top but sort of sets the mood for the following parts of this work.

Altogether its a brilliant work, a brilliant work of synthesis that presents distant and apparently unrelated events in a logical manner which links them seamlessly and perfectly.

For many years i have researched to discover who might be behind the manipulation of modern societies. I am pleased with the view of the director in proving that The Federal Reserve, Central Bank(s), etc have the power, the motive and the opportunity to do this.

This is certainly a documentary to, not just watch, but download/buy and keep on your computer for your children to watch one day.

We need everyone to watch this, we need everyone to remember what was said in this, we need everyone to read around the topics, we need everyone to discuss these issues with friends with families at get-togethers, then we need people to get active and angry. To borrow a quote from Tolkein: All we have to do is to decide what is to be done with the time that is given to us. If our generations alive today only feed off MTV and Sports channels and at the most tune into Fox “News” for an update about the world then we’re very screwed indeed and its time to either be very very scared or very very angry!!

Someone remind me: why is Obama still intent on going into Afghanistan?

this comment took a gigantic turn for the better near the end.
it’s funny reading the bitter christians bicker about how “there is a massive amount of evidence that Jesus existed”
haha. it’s ok. it’s alright. i’m not blaming you. i expect you to keep on believing something that’s been driven into your thick skull since you were born. someone weak minded as you, which is a majority of christians in this disgusting corruption we call “society”, is expected to defend their manipulated minds.
have a good life. and stay the hell out of mine.

What I am about to write, many of you will find impossible to believe. I am going to share something that I and many like me know, with out doubt, is the truth. My coming into this knowledge is personal so I will not go into much detail about what I have gleamed from my experiences but I will share enough information so that no matter what you personally believe, if you have any intelligence at all, you will at least wonder, “could this be real?”. As I said, the information I’m about to share will be limited because the “truths” I have learned were for me and me alone. The truth is out there and I hope you can come to find it in your own way.

Some of you will read my words and be in agreement. Others will think it is the rantings of an insane or delusional person. To be honest, I myself have wondered this to the point where I have voluntarily allowed myself to be subjected to and examined by some of the best in the field of psychology. Either my mental illness is buried so deep, science could not detect it or what has happened to me is REAL. Since I have been given a clean bill of mental health (as much as anyone can in this insane world) I am comforted knowing, my experiences really happened. What I’ve learned from them is nothing but the TRUTH. No room for “gray”… no room subject for debate. No one will ever be able to convince me what I know is wrong. Even when they try to make their lies look and sound like truth.

Like many of you I found fault with the first part of this film. Much of the information provided was false and misleading. This is sad because it lends discrete to the latter parts of the film. However, I can assure you from my own study of history, social sciences, economics, and personal relationships with those directly involved, the last two segments of the film are “right on”. It’s the first part of this film I feel the need to address. I do so because what I am about to share just may provide you with the solution to the madness. There are real forces of evil who believe it’s their right to rule this would. They believe it’s their right because they have granted it to themselves. They do so at the expense of everyone else.

Other bloggers have posted sound arguments in disagreement with the first part of the film. I will not repeat their postings. I will simply say I agree with most because they’re statements are based in fact. Enough said. I’m writing this to share how I know the first part of the film is misleading. Hear goes… I have literally heard the quite still voice of GOD. I have felt HIS presence and HIS love poor out on me. I have seen miracles that can not be explained by coincidence or random acts of nature. Miracles that did not… could not, have the hand of man on them in any way or form. They say “seeing is believing” but it does not work that way with GOD. One must have faith before miracles present themselves. For the most part, GOD always seems to find a way to do things that will leave most not knowing HIS will was being done. Yet, for some reason I have been “blessed” on several occasions to be spared of this blindness. I have seen and been a part of things that can not be explained excepted as the direct work of GOD.

GOD is not some old myth imagined by our ancestors. HE is real and interactive. HE is reachable. He hears when we cry out from the depths of our hearts. GOD is as real, if not more so, than anything in this plane of existence. But just as I know GOD is real I know Evil is also real. There are beings who choose to be in rebelion against GOD. Satan leads this faction. Satan has polluted GOD’s relationship with man from the very beginning. Religion more often than not has been influenced by the lies of Satan. Just because the “barrow of apples” we call religion is rotten too many dismiss the One who made the barrow. The One who made the apples. The One who made the rotten apple ( Satan) who corrupted the barrow. GOD made each of us with free will, mortal man and angle alike. God allows us all to choose to be obedient to HIS will or not. Many rebel because they see no reason to bow down and worship anyone but them selves. Does that trait of character sound like the men and women who “think” they own 99% of the world. GOD is GOD. He has always been GOD. There are no other gods but GOD. There will never be any other gods, than GOD. Many, from Satan down to the pettiest of bullies, believe they run the show. This includes those few who own the worlds wealth. But they are wrong. They own nothing. They can take none of their wealth into the next life. GOD made this world and all others. HE made every star in the sky. HE made the primordial atom and the first hydrogen atom. All that lives does so because HE breathed life into it. All souls belongs to HIM. The quicker you understand and except that the faster you will find peace no matter what evil does.

Through the ages there have been many false gods, false prophets and misleading religious leaders. All were under the influence of Satan. Even in our so called modern and enlightened days many follow false prophets like Muhammad, Joesph Smith Jr. and L. Ron Hubbard. Make no mistake. You can believe in GOD. You can Believe in Jesus. You can believe in the Pope, the priest, the preacher, the mullah, the bog-won. But, if you allow yourself to come under the influence of of false prophets you open yourself up to the influence of evil. Jesus, the Christ, is GOD manifested in the flesh. His sacrifice paid for our sins. And, sin is real. Sin is being disobedient of GOD’s will. No matter what is said about false gods by false prophets, Jesus is the way, the truth and, the light of the world. To follow His teachings leads to a better world. In this life and the next. The only examples anyone can give of Christian messing up is when they go against the teachings of Jesus. There is no other way back to the Father GOD except except through Him.

Satan is an expert at telling just enough truths to get you hooked so when he lies you won’t catch it. You’ll except his lies as truth. Satan’s lies can cost you your soul. This film is like that. Are there people in this world who think they run it? Sure. Are they evil, self absorbed, greedy, power hungry, megalomaniacs? Sure. Is there anything we can do about them? Maybe… we can try. But Jesus said we are not to separate the wheat from the tares. We are to leave it to Him and His angles. That means even if it looks like the intire field has been taken over by the tares we are not to resist. He said we are to endure. That’s hard for a lot of us who would like to fight back. It’s hard to see so much suffering and not want to do something to help. And to be sure, if we can, we should. If GOD puts someone in our path who needs help we will be held accountable to GOD if we don’t.

Do so called religious leaders have all the answers. Hell no!!! Some of them think the world is only 5000 years old. Does science have all the answers. A bigger hell no! But I’m here to tell you there is a GOD. He is real. Jesus, the Christ is real. I know because I have seen His handy work first hand. I have heard the voice of GOD and felt his Holy Spirit. He will come again to set up His Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven and when He does I don’t think any of the so called rulers of the world will fair too well. In the mean time all we can do is try to be the best kind people we can be. Best in the eyes of GOD. Love one another, even our enemies. Pray for them. Pray that they to come to see the light before it is to late. But in the mean time if you let people try to take GOD out of your life you will end up like the world bankers and so called secret rulers of the world. You will be lost and malleable to the forces of evil. I have seen people who live without GOD or who follow false gods. Their souls are empty and lacking. If you want to find GOD don’t look in churches. Find a private place, humble your self before the maker of the universe. Get down on your knees, lay flat on your face because you know you are not worthy and ask for HIS forgiveness. Ask in the name of Jesus. Ask for His love, peace and understanding. Ask for wisdom to be able to recognize the difference between truth and lies. Ask for wisdom and guidance in your everyday life. Give to GOD what it already HIS. Give HIM you life. Live your life in a way that would make GOD proud. I promise you. There is nothing evil can do that will take the love and peace you will find away. You may never get rich but you will always have what you need. And if you make mistake (and we all do) be prepared to get thumped on the head by a Father who loves us and will if necessary beat right and wrong into us if that is what it takes. Try to be smart enough… obedient enough not to get thumped to much. Faith comes by hearing the Word of GOD. Get a Bible. Read it. Study it. If you want to know what GOD expects of you read HIS Word.

Not everyone will have my experience. People can go their intire lives and never “hear” GOD’s voice. You may never see a miracle in this world. But if you do as I’ve recommended, you will one day see GOD and when you do you will hear HIM say. “Well done my child. You have been a good and faithful servant. Welcome. I have prepared a place of peace and love for you to spend the rest of eternity”. By the way George Carlin did get it right. Do it your way instead of GOD’s way and you do get to spend forever with the one you chose to follow. Satan would be overjoyed to know he had dragged another soul down with him into damnation. You and George may not like the sound of that but remember… you don’t get to make the rules. GOD does. HE is after all GOD.

Good luck to all of us in the New World Order. It is coming. There will be a one world government and religion. Both will leave GOD out. But it will not last for long. Jesus will return and when He does He is coming to kick evil’s butt. Just try to make sure you’re not in the getting ass kicked line.

Hmm…. although I applaud anything that gets people to start thinking and out of the apathy that (particularly British) society has fallen into, I urge people to think critically about the material presented in this film and to pursue further research.

There are many inconsistencies in the film and some very dubious facts presented in the 1st part which have been flamed by various theologians in many websites. (Just do a google and you will see that many people have grave misgivings about part 1 of the film and also some parts of the addendum).

Having said that, I found parts 2 and 3 fairly thought provoking and the addendum gives an enlightening view on the nuts and bolts of our society’s systems. Certainly a film that cynics will enjoy, but at the same time the addendum gives us some views of a future that we all can dream about and hopefully work towards.

Today British PM called for world co-ordination on glabal crisis.
Stop!
Think.
Are historical facts debatable. Ofcourse they are.
Does Zeitgeist ask us to think about the world it’s stories history and power players.
Yes, it does.
Did the Jewish people come from Eqypt?
Yes they did.
Is it possible that their culture adn stories were influenced by Egyptian culture?
Ofcourse.

So Zeitgeist merely shares with us some key concepts.

Now we have an opportunity to think about these concepts.

There is nothing to be scared of believers and non believers it’s only thinking let’s try to review some of the key concepts such as; transference, social control, belief, .

The tradition of twisting morphing, evolving, creating, rearranging is natural as nature itself.
Within Zeitgeist 35:11 the narrator talks about transference and ones characters attributes transferred to another character. Ok arguably the concept of transfering things and thoughts from one place to another is a very natural phenomenon as natural as father to son, mother to daughter light to a plant, water from mountain to sea etc.

The fact the Jewish people did come from Egypt and of course were influenced by their culture and stories etc it is not to hard to understand or imagine that. Also other concepts discussed such as social control are not hard to believe either and those that don’t like to analyse things that are controlling them your therapist may talk of this as denial. So take some time watch the show again and take some time to think about the CONCEPTS = tools for thinking. Remember thinking critically is not the same as criticizing its merely the process of taking in all points of view or listening to all the information rather than narrow slices and digging deep exploring the concepts. Don’t be scared or angry you are learning new ideas go for it who knows what you will discover believe me there is much more. Thinking deeply will strngthen only one person - you.

Go for it

Once we open our selves to recognizing things through a process of questioning or critical thought not to be confused with criticizing we can start to learn about things that have influence over us and thus to certain degrees can be said to be controlling us. Being critical or getting all the information even that which is hard for us to hear, read or learn about takes patience and an open heart. Try to come to enjoy it and you will learn a great deal, firstly about yourself and secondly about the world.

peace, love, sensitive intelligence, analysis, patience and bravery will save us.

the sun is lets havest this god and take the power back

solar power = self empowerment start saving for your own solar cells today save us from you know who.

there’s too much information out there like this. People who are religious I think have a hard time believing it because they’ve based their life around something that may not be real. Imagine if a priest found out that he’d devoted his life to a fairy tale, how devastating would that be? Would it be worth living anymore? How would you go on? There is intense motivation for devout people to deny and close their minds to this type of thought. Sorry, it’s real. Why aren’t there documentaries about the real life of jesus based on fact? THE BIBLE IS NOT FACT!!!!! If you took documents that were procured in the way that the bible was (told by a “divine” source to someone who lived 100 years after the fact) into a modern court and tried to prove your case based on them you’d be laughed at. These are beliefs that were founded in the bronze age when Sea monsters were a real fear and the world was flat!!!

Unlike religion, science welcomes change, there are plenty of accounts of books being left out of the bible, being banned from being read by christians and generally keeping new information from coming to light. Less that 10% of scientists believe in any form of religion, WE NEED TO WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!!!! How long are we going to continue believing in something that has no basis in reality!?!

Modern religion is silly and realistic. It carries about as much weight as Jack and the beanstalk, jack and the beanstalk never got anyone killed though.

Well… I watched this about 4 times at first it was a great discovery, then as I thought more and more about it, it just started to detiriate front of my eyes. The religion part is basically trying to tell people that to believe a storey that teaches by example is un-necessary. However, who cares where religion comes from, the story is only a vehicle for people to understand the teachings of a religion for goodness towards one-another. Religion is very important for humankind, without religion this world would be only what these guys show. These film makers trying to grab attention by showing the evil in the world and unconsciously they are promoting it. This kind of stuff is basically unnecessary. Evil promotes itself just by existing in this world. Try to make a movie by showing the good in the world there are plenty great things to show. But to make a movie about goodness needs some know-how of movie-making. To make something good look interesting to people who is used to watch all the crap that is on the general media these days. These guys just had taken it to another level called “shiiit”.
You know these days they say that art is supposed to make you feel something and the experience is the purpose of that art. But can I ask you, why is it always a negative feeling?????
I hope that this is somewhat inspirational to some movie makers who really are looking for a way out from their struggle.

Okay I have watched the documentary several times as I have taken a huge interest in 9/11 since its occurrence and as radical as it is to believe, I wouldn’t be surprised as to the lengths that government will go to to control civilians. Like the documentary states; it was done in the past and its being done now. Also with regards to the first part of the film, I feel that many people have taken the wrong message from the film; the film is not a dispute of whether God really exists but rather that religion for centuries has become and been used as a political gimmick from Constantine the Great to present America. It is not God that is the issue, it is religion as an institution, used almost to the extent of propaganda. The truth is in desperate times, it is almost too easy to toy with human emotion and faith; its been the easiest and most used tool for centuries…read up on the history of any religion…war has always been a precursor to religion

Most of us human beings already are SLAVES, even the richest ones on earth are - SLAVE to seek of greater wealth then the filthy lot they already have!! And look what they had caused the world to become - greater poverty, more wars and more discriminations(be it racial, academic, income et al)!! The world had generated more wealth now than it ever had but are we progressing spiritually (not religiously), morally and ethically??!!! We are trapped and enslaved by all these material needs. And how do we (human beings in a so-called “civilised” society) compare to those (beings living is “uncivilised” societies of isolated jungles)??

I really have to say, VERY well done, too bad its BS

There you go, nearly every word for the first part, debunked. Do some research on your own people, dont believe the crap thats in the first part of this documentary. If he had left it out, it would have made the rest a bit more credible. Too much stuff that is simply made up

The attempt to discredit Christianity was ridiculous. It didn’t take a lot of research to prove that their information was bogus. The historicity of Jesus is well established. The manuscript reliability of the Bible is far greater than any other ancient document. There are NO failed prophecies in the Bible, just a few that haven’t been fulfilled yet. This film is just further evidence that we are in the Last Days predicted in the Bible.

I recorded the audio for this documentary and then put it on my mp3 player. Listened to it at work last night and my god, this country is heading into what can not only be called a new world order but it’s communism. If it really does shape up like the documentary says and I believe it will, I’m moving to Denmark. Very good documentary, every American that can open up their minds enough needs to see this and heed its warming. I think it’s just sick that people would kill thousands of their own people to get laws passed, and to manipulate the public. I’m gonna give me dad the link to this video this is a must see.

The part about Jesus is very accurate actually. All they’re saying is simply this: For the times of when the bible was written and it was written by scholars. Scholars at that time were the wise men and women that recorded histories for the time. They were like what journalists are for today but obviously much smarter in their wisdom of the world. Smarter in the fact that they could convince anyone at the time of anything they would write about. So they all collaborated on an idea that they know would be very profound and would change the world at the time.

They all put together stories and contributed their infinite wisdom of the world to a book they called the bible. Sure it was added to down the way, it’s like how Wiki is today, but it’s fictional. Think about all the great exploits spoken of in the bible, then think about what people were traveling around in, in those days. Mules, horses, camels, and maybe elephants ETC, all forms of slow transportation, meaning whoever wrote the bible, scholars had no way to write what they discovered and also travel the world over and speak of their journeys.

People will have a hard time swallowing this because it requires an open mind, do you ever look or visualize in the third person where you get a broad view of your surroundings? It’s hard for many people to do this or grasp this concept. All the facts are presented and they are all there in plain view. The sun, meaning that star way out in the sky IS what many religions refer to as the Sun of god, not the SON of god. That’s all they are saying in this documentary, the sun rises every day and defeats the darkness, darkness prevails and then the sun is reborn the next day, the sun of god.

I believe it because I went and looked up about if anyone wrote about a man named Jesus myself for that time and no facts come up. Noone has written anything and they don’t need to, it’s the Sun that gives warmth, the sun that gives us life and air to breathe and a planet that keeps in orbit with the moon. It’s all these fundamental forces that holds the world together and gives us our planet. We have an iron core and an ozone layer to protect from the Suns Ultravilolet rays. We have rocks and ground that hold in carbon and keep out green house gases so we don’t suffocate. We have an atmosphere that keeps harmful space debris so we aren’t going to get obliterated by an asteroid or comet.

All Scientific things, look some of this stuff up and get informed about what is keeping this planet together and what metals we have, what greenhouse gases do. It’s easy science, and it’s very easily understood.

It doesn’t take much research to prove that the film is based on lies. None of the accusation against Christianity are documented outside ofthis film. Do your own research. None of the parallels with paganism actually exist.

The historicity of Jesus Christ is well established. The manuscript authority if the New Testament is greater than any other document in antiquity.

I am a Christian mainly because of Bible prophecy. There are NO failed prophecies in the Bible. No other book can make such a claim. This is something to consider before you begin rewriting history.

Ok.. Heres the deal…

No matter how you look at this film one thing is very clear and has been clear to me since 2002… probably even longer… that there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with this country and the world.

I cant stand these jesus freaks that watch zeitgeist and AUTOMATICALLY have to start disputing the facts presented… (yes.. facts… do your research… i did for many years.)

the point of this movie is not to piss people off but to shed light on the fact that the diseases known as the monetary system, religion, and government are destroying us, and that they all rely on each other. its like the fire triangle.. take one out of the equation and the other two will fall…

Not once does peter joseph say to take up arms and overthrow… the point is that WE are the ones giving these jackasses the power and if the ignorant population of america gave enough of a $hit then we could just as easily take it away… but no.. people are way too comfortable for that… god forbid someone takes some action and does something…

Am i a hypocrite for saying this? no. I’ve led many protest in capitol cities and also led massive demonstrations… the problem is that people are way too brainwashed for just a few hundred passionate people to change anything… the system has to fail… and without us making it fail… it probably wont… if we refuse to use it… it will..

Reject the system…
1:dont use Citi bank, Morgan Chase, or bank of america…
if you have stocks in them.. sell them… if you work at one of these banks or for them… quit…
2:get off the grid.. if at all possible find any means possible to not use any type of grid gas or electricity… if you can.. convert your cars using one of the many conversion kits that will allow you to use a fuel other than that that will support the fuel and energy corporations.
3: boycot any major corporation doing us harm… ex: wal-mart and the like… shell gas.. etc.

these are only a few of the things.. watch zeitgeist addendum for more info…

smarten up people.. stop arguing over stupid religious/ploitical bullshit just because youre afraid of everything youve ever known being a lie… its time for change… and not this crap obama speaks of… real change.
