All I ask is that you watch this movie and respond here of your opinions. Does this change anything in your thought process? It didn't for me, because it just moreover confirmed my beliefs.

Oh, it's two hours long, so when you get the chance to watch it, please do. domokun

It basically talks about how the bible is a copy of many other stories throughout history. Also says the bible is really just an astrological bit of some sort, im still watching it, but it's just debunking christianity, and its so beautiful.

Edit: It starts about 6min into the video, if you want to skip all that imagery crap.

Ah, I'm not too much into bashing Jesusity for it's own sake, although I'll watch if it's interesting. I went through an angsty athiest phase, and after that, I'm not really interested in the debunking, bashing, or provin' s**t.

Well the Jesus thing was only part one. It went so deep, im still trying to comprehend it all. It had me almost in tears. If it's all true, then god help us.

PLEASE WATCH IT. I want to know what others think. Maybe im just a gullible a**, but why is it so hard to believe our government is so corrupt?

This got posted on the Deo's Shadow forums, too. It's an interesting movie.

Part 1.) All the solar savior stories are based on the cosmological movements of the sun and stars, and there are a lot of Pagan solar saviors that come along before Jesus. Jesus is historicized and made to be an actual person to remove people's connection to nature, when in fact he's an astrological and literary hybrid figure representing the current Piscean Age.

Part 2.) Now we start to enter the conspiracy theories, the major one he covers here being that 9/11 was an inside job, put together by government (with backing from international banking cartels) to further their war agenda. (If it's true, boy did it work!) He also reaches back into history to state that they've done this before...the Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, the Tonkin Incident. The 2005 bombings in London, even.

Part 3.) If that's not enough, he goes into the history of the Federal Reserve, from its inception to its methods, as well as the illegality of the Federal Income Tax, the mass media's distraction from the truth, the lack of funding for education, the removal of our rights, and the international banking families' ultimate goal: a singular world government, single currency, single army. The end is a sort of call to action, to wake up to what's happening and start thinking for oneself.

Basic synopsis, but at least worth checking out. It's very sensationalist at times, but he lists his sources on a link at the bottom of the site if you want to do your own research.

Kind of on the same page (the whole "big business/bankers own everything") but not quite to the same degree:

It's George Carlin. He's funny, and he makes very good points here.

George Carlin is a ******** hilarious man, one of the best.

On topic, this movie has put me into depression. I thought I knew, but this movie just shows me things are so bad.

Just finished watching Zeitgeist; It was alright, but I doubt quite a few of the claims made in the video since they seemed to be things that could've been taken out of context. However, as Azana said, there're links for you to do your own research on it, so it's all good, no real complaints there.

Haven't watched the video yet, by the way.


I'd just like to say that anyone who has been observant over the years should be able to notice that our world is at risk of going to a "Brave New World" scenario... but like all conspiracy theories, it is important to remember that they are based on the gray areas... so there will never be solid proof for or against it, and that is part of their draw.

I can not take a several thousand year old conspiracy seriously... the very notion is ridiculous...

Well, I don't think the modern Christianity is a conspiracy. It's just that it's been believed so long as to become a standard. But, admittedly, the switch of the Romans from such a well-established Hellenistic religion to Christianity I've always felt was odd. And no one can deny that in the Middle Ages, the church controlled everything.

A LOT of the claims were false, nearly everything claimed about Ra was false.
