I am in the process of watching this fascinating documentary called ‘Zeitgeist.’ It deals with a number of different subjects, but the gist of the film is how we as a species hold grave misconceptions about the world we live in. The first few parts deal with religion. It didn’t really break new ground for me, since I have been studing this subject relentlessly for months, but Zeitgeist lays the facts out in a very easy to understand way.
A year ago I wouldn’t have touched a movie like this with a ten foot pole. The self-protecting/reinforcing mechanism that I was indoctrinated with was still somewhat functioning. It wasn’t until I took that first step, and dared to check something out that I new would challenge my faith in Christianity that the machine broke down in my mind. Today, after much research and soul search, I can say with confidence that God, Jesus, the Bible, and religion as a whole is not what most people think it is. It has a history that you may not be aware of, so if you are a believer, be warned: this documentary will challenge your belief system. If you can’t handle that, then don’t watch it. If you are ready, then you already know that you have nothing to fear.
I took the liberty of uploading the video in segmants to my Youtube chanel. Below is the first part of Zeitgeist: The Greatest Story Ever Told.
