WHAT IS YOUR PERSONAL OPINION OF...? (page 2)

The movie was interesting, but as with all extreme views, it made me a little skeptical...so I just took the information ''with a grain of salt''.

Somewhat frightening that so many are frantically buying into its claims lock stock and barrel.

What makes propaganda work is the mixing of fact with fiction in a way that the medicine is covered by the sugar.

You have to work hard to separate the real tidbits from the bogus agenda.

That's what the brain is for.

I found it very entertaining in a strange way.

Very good, Excellent Terry, I have had and read books about this, but seeing it in a movie really drives it home. Thank you.

I bought a book from this lady about 10 years ago and she explained this. The movie presents the information from her books with the visuals.

When the student is ready the teacher will appear.

Thanks for the thread. It got me interested enough to watch. I'm going to download it through emule.

Terry, you didn't elaborate as to personal opinion of....what? The artistic element, the content, the entertainment aspect, or whether it is truth or not?

I just finished watching this for the second time. The first time you watch this video, you are struck speechless by the WOW factor. The beginning moves fast and heavy and literally throws snippets of horror at you using babies, children, and weeping women to set the emotional stage for what is to come.

There's the "time lapse" animated evolutionary stages, then a quick flash to a Bible and an American Flag, then more horror and destruction and carnage and fear and sadness going from World Trade Center scenes to Iraqi war scenes. Your heart feels heavy in your chest with anguish just seeing these pictures. You get a gutteral feeling like:" What is wrong with humankind! How can we do this to each other!" The emotional stage is set and you are ready to accept the explanation the film then gives: We have been lied to by all institutions and religion is at the bottom of the dirt. We have been misled away from true and divine presence...a spiritual fraud has been perpetrated on the masses! Our most basic institutions involving religion, government, education, and banking are being controlled by Masters of Deceit.

The first time I watched the video, it appeared that its "conspiracy is all around us" approach was complete truth. I was blown away by how obvious it all seems now. Yes, the pieces fit! But if you watch it again, you realize much of it is propaganda mixed with historical and current events. They use Watchtoweresque words like "believed to be" and fail to provide proof to much of their accusations.

I have to say, however, that it MAKES you think. You CANNOT walk away from this video certain about ANYTHING! Part II is titled "All the World's a Stage" and that makes you realize there are players and observers.

I am still digesting some of the material presented and am not quite sure yet how much can be labeled real truth. Propaganda is a powerful tool and when presented with lots of bells and whistles, it can SOUND like Truth. Just look at the WTB&TS and the stuff they got us to believe!

a fellow I worked with 20 years ago called me yesterday and told me about this movie - out of the blue. I used to call him Lennie the Subversive. I'll be interested in checking out the movie most likely for the entertainment.

Watched last night...slick...journey-on's comments are dead on...the films mix of truth, near-truth and fabrication was attention grabbing...an interesting viewing....

Paralipomenon

It was interesting. It played like a documentary that lent it a bit of extra credibility, but emphatically stating something is true doesn't make it so.

Part 1) After watching this I went and did some research. I do think the account of Jesus borrowed heavily from other stories of nation's gods, but no where near as much as this let on. The whole method of the "ages" defies comprehension. They take the current astrology and project it back in time.

I believe most of the constellations that we are familiar with are from the Greek culture. To assume that the Egyptians looked up at the sky, looked at a cluster of stars and also thought it looked like a bull is a stretch. Also these ancients being able to calculate the tipping of the earth's axis affecting the sky constellations is very advanced math that depends on the assumption that the earth is an oblate spheroid, of which the ancients felt the earth was flat and therefore unable to come up with the necessary formula.

Part 2) This is where I'm somewhat skeptical. Alot of what was presented was standard and has alot of people questioning the 9/11 attacks. My personal opinion isn't made up yet. Where there's this much smoke, there needs to be some fire somewhere.

Part 3) Again, some truths and some falsehoods. Yes, I do feel that America has sold it's soul to banks and corporations, but this contained some large stretches of the imagination. Yes, the income tax law was never properly passed, but no, it doesn't make it illegal. As for the giving up of civil liberties, I do feel that Americans should be fighting harder to keep their freedoms. But this isn't a conspiracy to keep people stupid and uneducated, but I think it's a move to move the states into an imperial age. That's just my thought. America could be so much more powerful if it wasn't constricted by a democracy and potential power attracts tyrants. It is all over history.

In all, it was entertaining, but really didn't change my views much at all. Alot of money went into putting this together but I didn't see where the grants came from.

The whole movie was designed to spark a revolution. Get people mad, demand change. But who wants a revolution? Who would benefit? I personally have no idea.

I'm watching it now.....lack of references bothers me.

I'm watching it now.....lack of references bothers me.

That is not its purpose.

Its purpose is to get people to THINK. We are in the 21st century man. Referencing claims is not hard.
