Review of Zeitgeist: The Movie (2007) by Ramey E — 23 Jul 2008
Zeitgeist is a film I decided to watch and unlike many other people its a film I actually decided to investigate...because lets face it Zeitgeist makes some wild claims! The first section based on religion basically slams religion as a big lie and goes as far to say with strong confidence that Jesus didn't even exist, not biblically let alone historically. The fact is basically all scholars in this day and age dont despute the fact of the existance of Jesus period.
The second "big hit" this film tries desperately to tell people that Jesus is a copy from other Gods/Heroes and that Christianity is simply a rip off from other religions. This is where the film loses its credibility and you can clearly see the motives here.
About 80% of their "parallels" of other mythical ancient Gods and Jesus are claims that are absolutely false! Out of Zeitgeists 200+ "sources" only 22% of the sources are original documents dating from the period.
An ice breaker with this film is when you discover or "research" who the sources dominantly are for the Zeitgeist perspective. The sources are majority 20th and 19th century writers whos works have been said to be completely unreliable, speculative and based on conjecture. The background of these writers are also majority Occultists/ Free Masons and Luciferists or Satan Worshippers.!!
People who watch this film and suddenly dismiss religion or God have absolutely no idea. This film goes around saying the Bible and religion are nothing but lies and when providing their evidence they use 80% lies and 20% truths and that deserves no credit. The religious section of Zeitgeist cannot be taken seriously. The film has about as much fiction as the book its slamming for being ficitious!
At the end of the day it is good for people to do their research before praising such junk of a movie. A respected documentery is meant to be a truthful one and this is a lie that sadly, many people are buying into.
The other sections of Zeitgeist lost credit because the first 40 minutes=drivel!!
