Anyone here see the movie Zeitgeist? It answers a lot of questions, and sort of proves Christianity is false. A good movie for... Anyone to watch.

I don't believe a historical Jesus ever existed but I'm not going to support my skepticism with claims that he was a copycat of earlier pagan myths. I stick with the Bible and show how Christians have yet to even tell a coherent story, never mind prove it.
Atheist Forums Hall of Shame:
"The trinity can be equated to having your cake and eating it too." ... -Lucent, trying to defend the Trinity concept "(Yahweh's) actions are good because (Yahweh) is the ultimate standard of goodness. That’s not begging the question" ... -Statler Waldorf, Christian apologist
And you do a sterling job of it. I've watched all your vids. Any chance of an autograph?
NB: you may know me better as AntiGodSquad from JNE (also Kepler's Dream on YouTube, though that's probably less familiar).
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
I haven't watched that movie...
but if a deist hated it you must be doing something right.
Zeitgeist was heavily fabricated. I wouldn't rely on it as a source.
"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me
"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation; all of which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, even if religion vanished; but religious superstition dismounts all these and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men." – Francis Bacon
Watched it once, didn't think much of it. Watched it again to make sure. Wouldn't watch it again. Not a particularly informative reply, I know, but it's what happened.

Oh for fuck sake,not this shit again! "Zeitgeist" is NOT "a good movie", it's pure propaganda at its best, pure crackpottery at its worst. The film was made for the credulous uneducated who have not yet mastered critical thinking. Below some critical reactions: Quote:Critical reaction http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist:_The_Movie Acharyra is a notorious fruitloop,Look her up.

I have not watched the movie, however reviews I have seen from those people I would trust weren't great. So I will pass watching it. Besides there is plenty of good stuff out there which debunks the claims of Christianity. The works of Bart D Ehrman is a good start.

To be fair Padraic a lot of the Syndey anglicans of australia are a bunch of evangelical nutters, so I trust what THEY have to say even less (Not like the anglicans elsewhere in the western world, where belief in god is optional =P, they are nothing like your John Shelby Spong, Peter Jensen (Sydney archbishop and shit stirrer) went so far as ban him from the churches in his dioces IIRC).
I've seen it, crackpottery, codswallop, gobbldygoop, drivel, tripe... RE: Zeitgeist

You are totally right about the Sydney Anglicans, however the other reviews Padraic posted show that Zeitgest is a pile of steaming shit.
