The most amazing thing about the Zeitguist video is that anybody could sit through it. I tried to watch it three or four times and found it so stupifyingly boring, I had to bail out after ten or fifteen minutes. But I read many sites where its contents were discussed, and it appears to be full of complete nonsense. Specifically, Jesus being a fictional creation based on pagan gods is nonsense. That some aspects of pagan myth were attached to Jesus after his death does not make him a fiction.
I only became aware of it’s existance after noticing how many seriously ignorant people were suddenly professing an expansive knowledge of ancient mythology.
I know I sat through it but mercifully my mind seems to have blocked out the whole experience
