Zeitghiest? This video is...well...

Zeitgeist - The Movie, 2007

What do you guys think.

Food for thought I'm still thinking.

Yes sir Gdwarf here are some of the key points.

1: Christianity is a rip off of other key events people and deities throughout previous history.
2: The world trade center was destroyed by the United states government, they were pressured by certain wealthy individuals who had power behind the federal reserve bank where the government gets it's money. It was a cause to go to war so the rich people could make more money from the interest generated from the money the government had taken.
3:There are other examples of the united states using situations they created as a cause for war.
4: The united states government wants to form a union with mexico and canda in an attempt to one day unify the world in one government.

All that sounds rather stupid right now, but those are the key points the way the video presents them is very concvincing, keep an open mind watch the video make your own opinions.

I don't believe it but it tried it's best to convince me.

I DESPISE THIS MOVIE.

Zeitgeist part one, you fail. I'd go on and on, but I can just post a link to a site that talks about this movie.

Investigating the Similarities between Jesus and Pagan Figures

The first part is quite interesting...

Although with a quick google search you can prove many of those similarities wrong between Jesus and the pagan gods, just look up the so called "similar characteristics".

I also like how all the sources used to make part one are all biased against Christianity...

I'll admit the propaganda could be quite convincing if a single shred of the evidence had any correlation to reality at all.

See but it is one thing to say this movie wrong and another to prove it is wrong, the god I see, but other things, does anyone have anything on them?

...And this is why it's a bad idea to just link to videos.

FoV, please summarize the key points from the movie. Then we can address them.

The video makes sense if you watch it, until the end with the claim of the computer chip. Plus, if you look it up the facts don't add up. There is no such thing as The North American Union, it's BS.

They only took one side and derived the whole thing off of bais extremist sources with no care whatsoever for the other side. If they had proven it to us with facts from renowned scientists on both sides and provided suffiecient evidence instead of showing you a pciture and interpreting it and expecting you to swallow it all down without a second glance. No facts no mathmatics nothing this whole thing is ASS.

Are there small segments I can watch? I have Dial-up. >.>

Try youtube?

^ Yeah...but didn't you hear him, he stole a modem from a museme so it would cost him alot to watch youtube.

I do agree. This movie has an extreme bias. Ironically enough, it tells you to have an "open mind" when really to fully appreciate it you have to let it suck you in. When I first saw it I was immersed and mortified at what I had saw.

Upon further inspection, you'll find that a lot of things are just either coincidence or warped to make it seem like they have meaning. For instance, "son" and "sun" aren't etymologically related, so you can't just pretend like they are because they sound the same, it's just a simple play on words. These are the kind of things this movie does that are central to its inaccuracy.

I don't know for sure if September 11th was some kind of conspiracy, but there's a lot more strange evidence that other theories. I'm still unconvinced though, that the government would murder thousands of people for whatever reason. Then again.. aren't they don't just that by sending soldiers to their doom in Iraq?

Really though, I don't think there is any conspiracy with 9/11. This movie relies too much on shock value, and because of this, you can do anything but have an open mind while you're watching it.

^And, the many,many, many more people who will actually get killed by the soldiers in Iraq

I've seen the video a couple of months ago if I remember well (it may be shorter..) and I was a bit confused about the set-up of the movie. I don't see a good relation between them.. it seems like it's based on 5 points only.

I can't make the connection, something I was able to when watching Earthlings (Earthlings ). Youtube version: YouTube - Earthlings - part 1 of 3
Watch out for shocking material. But when I saw that movie, I was really shocked and it made me think different -- it didn't happen when watching this movie.

Other than that, the movie made me think more openly about these subjects. Because of all the controversal stories, I still don't know what to think.
