A
little over a week ago, I published a short review (of sorts) of [Zeitgeist:The Movie (2007)]. Since [Zeitgeist: Addendum(2008)] and [Zeitgeist: Moving Forward (2011)] are basically just regurgitations
of what was addressed in the first one of the series, this review will be even
shorter.
Well,
it will actually have about the same word-count, but considering that it will
be covering two movies instead of just one, it is arguable that it will be even
shorter. Don’t believe me? Okay, let’s do the math. Let’s see…divide pi (π) by the cube root of x (³√x) times… Shoot, my trusty old solar-powered Casio
calculator just made an awful sound and died.
So, you’ll just have to remove your shoes and socks to complete the
computations on your own.
Anyway,
there were some additional things to both movies that make them worth listening
to the rehashing of the old points. In Addendum, some fairly deep economics is
discussed, and in Moving Forward,
some ways to save the human race from extinction are proposed.
I
found it interesting that in Moving
Forward an effort was made to head-off questions about Marxism being the
basis for the movies. For by claiming to
not have any political leanings means that it is not—right?
This
is actually a shame to me. For from what
I understand about pure Marxism, it would promote a paradise on earth if
implemented properly. Ah, but with us
being who we naturally are, the only thing that can be counted on is more of
the same miseries—regardless of what form they may take.
This
is, of course, vehemently denied in the movies.
For they promote the idea that we are all basically good at heart, and
that it is because of having to fight for survival because of religion and
politics that life in this world is not all that it could be. In fact, they even go so far as to claim
there would no longer be any need for laws (not to mention law enforcement!) if things are
done right.
Nonetheless,
the inhabitants of this world (at the time) will see some of the things proposed in
the movies implemented before it is all over with. For the antichrist will come to power on the
promise of peace and prosperity for all, and for the first three and a half
years of his global rein, it will appear to happen. Hey,
we’re talking about clean air and water, abundant food supplies, the cure of
most (if not all) diseases and love for one another abounding everywhere.
It will be a completely different story the last three and a half years, however. You just wait and see (if you can stay alive for another 144 years or so).

In
the meantime, watch (or at least listen to) these movies. The parts about capitalistic greed hits
particularly hard for me after seeing our cable TV bill go up by around 50%
with few other options being available to us at this time. It is for this reason that this is the first
article by me here in over a week. I’ll
tell you all about later on.

Marxism only succeeded in killing millions of people during it's dark 70-years.
Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Lavender!!! Well, that wasn't really Marxism. For aside from the complete denial of our Heavenly Father's participation, it is almost identical to what He says is the way we should want to live our lives. Of course, that denial is a clear indication of where Marxism is actually coming from.
