Quote:they tarnish all criticism of faith, the Bush administration and globalization—there are more than enough factual injustices in this world to be going around without having to invent fictional ones.

That sums up my problems with Zeitgeist and 9/11 Truthers in general.

There's plenty of solid material to work with when it comes to criticizing the Bush Administration or Christianity. Just be careful. If you make one error or cite one faulty source, the apologist for either will jump on it, harp endlessly on it and try to poison the well in the process.

I thought putting criticism of religions and brainless conspiracy theories together creates an illusion of they are both nonsense, furthermore all criticism against religions nonsense. But, apparently people believe in brainless conspiracy theories and think that criticism of religions is nonsense...

I think it could be argued that they've more than made up for lost time due to having spread like a virus and becoming very very rich in the process...
