Default Interesting Documentary

I came upon this documentary on another forum and I discovered that it is one of the most viewed videos online of all time. According to their website, they rack about 70,000 hits a day.

It's called Zeitgeist. The beginning is a bit odd and slow but once you get into the depths of it, you'll start to think for yourself.

Believe me, this video will really make you think. Why you're hear, why you believe what you believe, and why your government and every other religious institution has fraudulently lied to you.

Check it out =D

Zeitgeist

This propaganda has been discussed many times before in the proper forum.

At the very least, we should insist that governments and other religious institutions either fraudulently tell us the truth or else genuinely lie to us. This fraudulent lying must stop!

One interesting item I learned is that governments are religious institutions. I don't know how that escaped me all these years.

some people think religion has everything to do with God or Allah or Buddha, etc.

but if you really think about it the atheist communism (form of government) is also a religious institution in almost every aspect including deities (party chiefs).

I had not seen this before, I had seen something similar a while back but It was solely based on the events of 911. Thanks for the posting.

I think you're referring to a little documentary a few college students did as a project. It was called LOOSE CHANGE. That one was pretty good too and as you watch Zeitgeist, it will make references to that video

The Church is a crutch for weak people.

I love how the government consistently tells us that this form of a republic was not founded on religion. Good lord, grow a backbone.
