it's just a collage of lots of video clips, documentaries, speeches, news media photos, paintings, and very very low-budget graphics. theres some original content, but it really just sounded exactly like this documentary I've seen a couple years ago called "Where Was God?"

In fact, this film completely plagiarizes entire segments from "Where Was God," while distorting some of the "facts." (In quotes, since none of this can really be proven, enough to satisfy those who would say otherwise...)

Instead of watching this movie, which is still decent, I would suggest just watching lots of Jordan Maxwell movies, who was the first narrator (not the one that claimed Jesus was born on the 25th - Jordan knows better than that).

All that being said, if you can identify the mistakes as you watch this video, then it's actually pretty good. It draws additional links, and provides clips / info taken from other sources I wasn't familiar with.

I'm disappointed with the production quality, and the obvious plagiarism, not just of content - which isn't bad, but of entire segments and the overall structure. Despite all of that, I found it incredibly entertaining / informative (grain of salt-esque) and I'll probably watch it again.

For anyone new to this topic, again I would suggest checking out Jordan Maxwell.

Common mistake.

My conception of god is flawed therefore there is no god.

I am not to well versed in the zeitgeist movement, I have some real major concerns with it. First off it seems to consolidate all power to some supreme computer thats going to delegate all the resources of the world. They seem to think this removes the human element, and thus is more fair for everyone. What it fails to mention is humans have to program computers, we don't have AI. Sounds like the ultimate platform for tyranny to me. The computer has deemed it so! :smile:

Again though I am not terribly well versed in the "movement", so I welcome you to prove me wrong( i actually always do). Thanks for reading.

Zeitgeist is Marxist propaganda.

you can all live in space age flats if you want. I'll stick to living out in the middle of nowhere, where you take responsibility for your own actions rather than having a computer doing it for you.

Also it was weird reading this and seeing discussion there should be a conspiracy forum. I only later looked at the dates.
