Zeitgeist?

Zeitgeist.
first question to be asked. what is zeitgeist??

wikipedia:

Zeitgeist (German pronunciation: [ˈtsaɪtɡaɪst] is "the spirit of the times" and/or "the spirit of the age." Zeitgeist is the general cultural, intellectual, ethical, spiritual, and/or political climate within a nation or even specific groups, along with the general ambience, morals, and sociocultural direction or mood of an era (similar to the English word mainstream or trend).

The term zeitgeist is from German Zeit- 'time' (cognate with English tide and "time") and Geist- 'spirit' (cognate with English ghost).


so, basically what is this movie trying to prove? let's check either this movie is worth watching or not.

First of all, im totally curious about the owner of the voices throughout the movie. The movie showed us blank dark screen with a voice behind it with a few bad transitions i must say. is he trying to hypnotize the viewers by that? well, try harder. introduction: failed. i couldn't concentrate and i was sooo curious about everything that he said as i am so afraid that i was dis-informed though the movie told us that they are trying to sell us the truth tickets.

Throughout the movie, we can divide one whole movie into three elements.

  1. Jesus Christ the fraud?
  2. 911
  3. Federal Reserves
For the first element. I was pretty intense on watching this part where i started to feel bad on watching this furthermore. Jesus Christ is the same person as we all known as Nabi Isa as. The teachings that he has been trying to spread to his men are the same as our beloved prophet Rasulullah SAW. Ages ago, before the new testament ever made, Christianity and Islam are about the same thing. The only difference that can be detected might be very thin and little. Because of the renewal of the Old Testament, the whole idea of Christianity has changed drastically. We'll talk about this later when we discuss about Byzantine.

i stumbled upon this website which is very interesting : Inilah Kebenaran

Isa versi Islam merupakan seorang manusia 100%. Baginda hanya merupakan seorang nabi. Baginda tidak dibunuh dan disalib. Al-Quran telah menjelaskan hal ini dengan nyata:

“Dan kerana ucapan mereka : ‘Sesungguhnya kami telah membunuh Al-Masih, ‘Isa anak Maryam, Rasul Allah’, padahal mereka tidak membunuhnya dan tidak pula menyalibnya…” ( Surah An-Nissa: 157)

‘Isa versi Kristian adalah manusia/tuhan Yesus yang telah mati dibunuh oleh orang-orang Yahudi. Kitab Injil ada memberitakan hal ini:

“Tetapi ketika mereka sampai kepada Yesus dan melihat bahwa ia telah mati….” (Yohanes 19:33)

“Ia pergi menghadap Pilatus dan meminta mayat Yesus. Pilatus memerintahkan untuk menyerahkannya kepadanya. Dan Yusuf pun mengambil mayat itu….”(Matius 27:58-59)

kita perlu memahami pengakuan Nabi ‘Isa di dalam Al-Qur’an bahawa baginda bukanlah Tuhan Allah:

“Dan (ingatlah) ketika Allah berfirman: Hai ‘Isa putera Maryam, adakah kam mengatakan kepada manusia: ‘Jadikanlah aku dan ibuku dua orang tuhan selain Allah?’. ‘Isa menjawab: ‘Maha Suci Engkau (ya Allah), tidaklah patut bagiku mengatakan sesuatu yang bukan hakku (mengatakannya). Jika aku katakan demikian, maka tentu Engkau mengetahuinya. Engkau mengetahui apa yang ada dalam diriku dan aku tiada mengetahui apa yang ada pada diri (Zat) Engkau. Sesungguhnya Engkau Maha Mengetahui segala perkara yang ghaib.’” (Surah Al-Maidah: 116)

“Aku ['Isa Al-Masih] tidak pernah mengatakan kepada mereka kecuali apa yang Engkau perintahkan kepadaku, iaitu: Sembahlah Allah, Tuhanku dan Tuhanmu dan aku menjadi saksi atas mereka, selama aku hidup bersama mereka, Tatkala Engkau mewafatkanku, Engkaulah yang mengawasi mereka. Dan Engkau menjadi saksi atas tiap-tiap sesuatu.” (Surah Al-Maidah: 117)



Hence, I can say that the first part of the Zeitgeist movie mostly are full of craps. Yes, a bit harsh but that's the TRUTH.

I will talk about the second and third parts on the next post.
