The truth about religion

[draggar]

This was linked in another forum and I found it very interesting. Some of it I already knew but I didn't know the depths of it all.

(Parts 2 and 3 are usually in the related videos link). It's al less than 30 minutes long.

As long as we're dealing in links and not our own words, here's a counter argument to the Zeitgeist video: http://wiki.ironchariots.org/index.php?title=Zeitgeist

There's a couple links at the bottom of that page that go into a lot more detail.

I've only watch the first part, so I can only comment that we already know that Christianity has borrowed from other religions in order to endear itself to the people it's trying to convert. It's also no surprise that there are similarities between religions. After all, they were all formed by humans trying to answer the same sorts of questions.

I think it's funny that, within the first minute of the video, they try to say that the English word "sunset" comes from the Egyptian god Set.
