    I thought this was one of the most interesting films I've seen in years.

    Is it all true? I don't know.

    Are things taken out of context? I don't know.

    Can I trust it anymore than the Watchtower? I don't know.

    Will it make me think? Yes.

    If that's it's intention, this film deserves an Oscar or two. One of the things I like about it is there was no "call to action". It never said, you should do this or that.... it simply stated what they believed to be the facts and let's us make the decision.

    My view of the world is altered. Thank you for posting this link.

    Watch this video:

    It is very short but contains scientific test of premise:

    When we got to the part where some guy being interviewed said that he had heard from one of the Rockerfellers that George Bush has a plan to install microchips in our foreheads I probably had sparks flying out of my ears. I felt both hilarity and nausea at the same time.

    Crazy? hmmmm alt Eight years ago, I wouldn't have believed what happened with Katrina could have ever happened here. I wouldn't have believed half of the crap Bush has done to our country.

    Microchips implanted in humans: High-tech helpers, or Big Brother surveillance tools?

    (AP) - CityWatcher.com, a provider of surveillance equipment, attracted little notice itself - until a year ago, when two of its employees had glass-encapsulated microchips with miniature antennas embedded in their forearms.

    The "chipping" of two workers with RFIDs - radio frequency identification tags as long as two grains of rice, as thick as a toothpick - was merely a way of restricting access to vaults that held sensitive data and images for police departments, a layer of security beyond key cards and clearance codes, the company said

    Baja Beach Club in Barcelona, Spain Launches Microchip Implantation for VIP Members

    Violet Jones/Infowars.com | April 7 2004

    Baja Beach Club owner Conrad Chase wanted something unique to identify his VIP patrons. Other clubs had special jewelry or key chains, but he was looking for something special. After brainstorming, he came up with the idea to implant his VIP members with VeriChip's implantable microchip.

    Alex has spoken many times over the years about how the making the chip "fun" and how by giving it an elite status soon an entire of young teenagers will be arguing with their parents demanding that they let them be implanted so that they can be in the "in" crowd. The Baja Beach Club and Chase have proved that the trend has started.

    I haven't had a chance to watch this yet anyway. I spent my entire day setting up a 3500 gallon pool in the back yard. It's STILL filling up after 7 hours. And I'm exhausted. Never again. It's easier to drive to the lake. How did I let them talk me into this one?

    I'll watch it tomorrow....

    Personally, I don't see the correlation that this film is supposed to have with the way that the Watchtower Society operates. That is a big leap in my opinion. If the information presented in the film makes you feel uncomfortable, then you can walk away and believe whatever you want. It would appear that the makers of this film want us to dig deeper and "wake up." On the other hand, the WTS only wants us to be "awake" insofar as it serves their needs, which is why they discourage looking beyond their own publications for answers. All information is propaganda. Don't assume that the propaganda from "trusted" sources is any less spun than a "documentary" like Zeitgeist.

    I watched it tonight. I'm going to watch it a second time. Regardless of whether all of this is true, or only part of it, or whether you believe it's true or not, this movie will make you think, and make you change the way you see the world.

    Thanks for the "sources" link, Primate D.

    Does anyone here know if the Greek words for "horizon" and "hour" are correct in the film?
