With all of the pounding that the secular world takes from the religious right, I see no reason to ban this video. Their stuff isn't banned because if falls under the sacred veil of being "religious". Why should the opposition be shut up. At one point in this country, maybe only in a dream, we were free.

If anyone finds this video offensive then I think that person has the problem. There is nothing offensive in this video, it is merely an amalgamation of historical anecdotes. Comments like this "I am not a religious man, but what is the point on battering on christianity. If you don't believe just leave it alone. Better not talk about religion at all." are from people choosing to be offended when no offending material exists. Maybe you are not secure enough in your faith?

The bit at the start of the video is just an attention grabber, but still, although some people would be offended by that, it's actually very factual. The rest of the video provides some good historical info that exposes religions as fraud, and I suspect that is the part that got some people worried! I recommend everyone to watch the full movie of Zeitgeist.

# Opinions, that deviate from the ruling zeitgeist, always aggravate the crowd. - Germaine de Staël\\ The simple fact of an idea being unpopular does not make it true. Under no circumstances should this video be banned from any forum, as it is in violation of nothing more than the comfort of certain persons. In response to the argument that this video "bashes on" christianity, I would ask how uniting people by the similarities in their beliefs rather than trying to tear them apart is attacking anyone. Please wake up, we need you, and your world needs you.

It should be banned in principle, however in my opinion, not for its content...Just like this webpage, when you register to use youtube’s services you agree to specific usage parameters. These parameters are called “terms of usage”, which state that the website has the authority to terminate your registration for any reason they see fit. When you check the “terms of usage” box you are essentially forfeiting your freedom of speech, and the owners may, at their will, delete any content and/or account they want. With that being said I make two points. One, although I do not necessarily agree with everything said in the short clip, I do believe that youtube is foolish for eliminating any point of view, whatever they may be, because it takes away for constructive dialog. And two, you don’t have to visit the webpage so if you don’t like the rules you don’t have to go. But then again, the good thing is if they erase it you can just post it again!

Who the hell do u think u r, thinking that just because u don't have any faith, that u should be going around bashing other people religions and faiths. I'm not saying I'm against the fact that your not Christian, thats your issue. But you don't see me running around spending weeks, months, maybe years researching, so I can make a video about if your religion actually exists or not. If you were an atheist (just an example) and i said that your faith was wrong and that instead of going to heaven or hell, you would die and become nothing, just another piece of shit that worms feed off of. Would I also just be expressing my views, cause it's my right?? And just so you noe, just because we have the right to free speech, doesn't mean we should take advantage of it. Like, just because we could steal sumthing and get away with it, doesn't mean we should be going around pronouncing KKK, or discrimination, or make videos that can kill someones faith, just because you feel that its your right. If thats the case, then you shouldn't have that right. Maybe it will teach you sum respect, and show you how thankful you should be for the rights you have. This isn't about covering up the truth, its about respecting people, their lifestyles, and their religions, whether you agree with them or not. Thanx 2 u, I hope no1's faith got ruined by this video. And as for the author of this video, I'm gonna pray for you, cause clearly, your gonna need it.

Nor was this mythose in it's origins intended to be taken as a literal "history". Debate if you must, but the revelation of Truths need no sanctions or censors...only lies and liars seek to enforce sanction and censorship.

First of all, the creator says that Christians should look into this before they decide, and As a Christian I did. Most of his facts were either not true (like the fact that Horus was born of a virgin), stretched (the story about the famous star does not actually work because first of all the wise men were not traveling on the 24th of December [because Jesus wasn't born then] and because it took them months to get their not just one day), or irrelevant (Jesus was not born on December 25, that is just a date that we celebrate his birth). There are many other reasons why this guys argument is ridiculous (trust me I am studying this) but I hope that people take his advice and research this even if you do intially believe it. I believe that this should continue to be shown so that people can learn to educate themselves on issues such as these so we all don't turn into ignorant adults (like many of those who rule the world today.)

You are silly. I have check on Wikipedia and none of your claim about the birth, dead and ressurection of other figures is true. Indeed, in Christianity, the birth, dead and ressurection of Jesus is the most important things. The virgin birth represent that He doesn't have original sin like other human who born from human sexual act. The death on the cross represent the sacrifice for atonement between sinned human and Holy God. The ressurection represent His victory over death and thus can give eternal life to whoever who has faith in Him. I am a Christian and I think your video shouldn't be banned, so that everyone know that false teaching are really exist and make them become aware of it. In the other hand, it should be flagged as 18 and above,because this matter might be too hard to be understood by below 18, thus can affect their point of view. Faith is a personal choice. Let those who make a choice on faith be mature enough to understand who they believe and what the consequences of their faith.

shouldn't be banned cause its just another opinion. plus i don't see why it should cause anyone any grief either. One of the fallacies i see of some religions is that they don't allow for internal analysis. If for example as a christian i were allowed to question certain aspects of christianity without being labeled by fellow christians as a heathen for simply wondering then i would be able to view videos like this, and dismiss them afterwards without even impacting my faith. by having a 'no questions' clause you are essentially creating problems that then require you to ban movies like this which effectively force viewers to question themselves (if only for a moment). freedom of thought would strengthen religion imo, not degrade it. never understood that one

I'm a christian, and am not offended by this video. I hold certain beliefs, but I do not contend that people who participate in other faiths should convert just because. Faith is a very personal experience, and no amount of arguing can change that. That said, I don't think this video should be banned, but I do think that those that watch it should inded do their own research. I have found that it contains information that is not accurate, although some would argue against the bible. I find the end of the video very interesting though... "If christians can, why can't I?..." How about "if buddhists, or krishnas, etc.... why can't I?" You walk a fine line when you speak your mind, especially about something like religion. I don't know, perhaps you've been persecuted by some zealous idiots, but I myself would never deny someone the right to practice or voice their faith... how then, has it come to mean that I must silence mine?

Yes, this video claims that Christianity is BS. Yes Christians are pissed off. Why wouldn't they be? The thing that Christians need to realize is that their religion is only a theory, NOT FACT! You, Christians may very well have faith. A few of you may even be good people. The problem is, you don't have any proof of your mythical religion (this is not to say that it is false). Until you can prove the truth of your religion, don't use it as the basis of an argument.

It states facts, if you don't agree, research them, but it's a free world and it's not bashing any religion, merely pointing at certain things, leaving to us to decide if we believe or not. The only people who would feel threatened are those who are uncertain of their own faith. Uncertainty leads to research, which leads to enlightenment. That is how progress is made. It doesn't cost to listen, and if this isn't for you, simply forget it. No need to feel threatened.

What this video says is nothing new. Every thing listed in this video has actually been shown by channels like discovery and National Geographic. Every catholic must know that their religion is a compilation from many other religions as are most religions. It is not how it was founded that should matter to you but that you belive in it and what other people say should in the end have no effect on your faith. This video is neither against catholics or portrays them in a negative matter and should not be flaged or removed.

interesting, but not accurate. Research will show this is not true, astrological stuff maybe, but historical facts of the prior kings is not true. I can count the ways just by what I know, and I'm not even a religious or astrological scholar. first of all, this video is grouped with a bunch of other conspiracy theory videos, which tells u something,second, he's making assumptions which aren't true. the Bible never specifies when Jesus was born, also, just researching Horus, which I did while he talked, not even beginning to research the other people... the stuff was untrue. nothing says he was born of a virgin, performed miracles at 12, baptized at 30... etc. and some of those people he mentioned are very famous historically. if ALL those people shared the same attributes, that woulda been exposed a long time ago. no the Bible never says when Jesus was born. and you know arabic, bethlehem doesn't mean house of bread it means house of meat. ba'ad this joke tells us to research before we assume things, I didn't even have to do extensive research to pick out numerous flaws in this piece.

If a religious man can't stand nine minutes of his whole life to watch a video, then he argues with himself. One of the main ideas in any religion is patience. People should choose what to belief in, because people can only enlighten themselves and not others. Since there is no point in stopping someone who will learn this eventually, people don't have the right to ostricize words spoken from anyone.

I do not think that this video should be banned. Freedom of speech is one of the fundamental freedoms which gives people the right to express their opinions and beliefs - no matter what they may be. Honestly, one of the major reasons this video should not be censored or banned is because of how much debate is occurring on the subjects presented in the film - including Parts II & III, not just Part I. Debating, questioning, researching - these are the manner by which to seek truth; whatever that truth may be. How can you debate, question or research if there is no opposition? No who who dares to question the status quo? As Roosevelt once said, "The truth is found when men are free to pursue it.” Banning this video is essentially the removal of an individual's freedom to search out the truth. You cannot pursue the validity of an opinion or belief if you have no knowledge of it. On another note, someone further up noted that "it should be flagged as 18 and above, because this matter might be too hard to be understood by below 18, thus can affect their point of view. Faith is a personal choice. Let those who make a choice on faith be mature enough to understand who they believe and what the consequences of their faith.". So, my assertion is that, (and I know I'm getting off topic) perhaps religions as a whole should not be taught to those under the age of 18 (or 16, whatever). By this view, those under 18 would not be mature enough to fully comprehend what they are being taught, and therefore could not make a fully rational and informed decision as to what they believe. Because, when you really think about it, indoctrinating young children to one belief is disturbingly wrong. Let them decide for themselves - do not influence them. Give them the scriptures, beliefs and information of and about every religion, let them read and research them all, and then see where their true, personal beliefs lie. (I'm sure this would never happen, but it was worth mentioning).

I've watched the entire Zeitgeist video, its 2 hours long, and is updated since this video was put on youtube, last year, the updates have fixed what were errors in the information, such as Mahamad being on that list. Also this video is not just one of religion, but one of 9/11 and one of what really runs the USA. It is well worth the watch to be aware. Jordan Maxwell is one of the historians who speaks in more detail about facts hidden by religous institutions and government. google search "jordan Maxwell" if you want to learn more.

the belief that a cosmic jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree....yeah, makes perfect sense

Just read the responses from the 'YES' people. You will see how blind beliefs can make you. They sound so ignorant and closed minded. The facts in this video do in fact check out. It is good. Nothing wrong with stating facts. It amazes me when people take fact stating as personal attacks. If your religion wasn't built on modified versions of astrology, you might have a defense worth reading. But when it comes down to it, all religions are built on modified astrology.

I'll be very brief...... This Video alone highlights the "Magic" of the Internet community and how people are having a chance to , globally, communicate with each other, by presenting some opinions or FACTS, (as this video does) and put them under discussion, regardless if someone agrees or not with these. And that my fellow citizens of this planet is the absolute expression of DEMOCRACY as we Greeks invented some time ago. REMEMBER the "closer" we are getting get as people, regardless our religious belief or our nationalities a better chance we will give to our children to replace TERROR with LOVE. My Regards to all of you, MJ...

Absolutely not! This video is very interesting, a lot of its information is contestable though, it's very important to do a research as I did after you watch it. Still, it's undeniable that there are just too many similarities among all those religious figures. I don't see why religious people want this video to be banned. Isn't their faith strong enough not to be fooled by something like this? What is the problem? Where is the freedom of speech? Videos shouldn't be banned just because some people have a different opinion about their contents. I'm agnostic, but regardless, I think it's healthy for anyone from any religion to watch this and learn more about their beliefs instead of just blindly worshiping something they're not even sure about, but still, I guess that some people just prefer to live in ignorance, thus they want the truth to be concealed from their eyes. Ignorance is a bliss, isn't it?

The idea of banning videos, literature, speech, etc,etc,etc, is facist. Accountability begins w/ the individual, therefore, let the individual accept his/her responsibility for what they what to see/read/watch,etc. BTW, this particular video RE: the multitude of messiahs is actually, literally, "old news"!!!

I'm not in favor of banning the video outright, but I have no problem with its removal from youtube, particularly since it's merely a clip from another film. Why? Because while I actually agree with the premise of the film, the logic is sloppy and it's a poorly disguised attack on Christianity, not a serious examination of world religion. In internet speak that's trolling, we don't need more people intentionally trolling religious folk like this, it accomplishes nothing. Remove from youtube plz.

This video should not be banned. You have the right to free speech, it's not as if you're forcing anyone to watch it and believe the same thing as you do.

its not battering christianity.... its fundermentally saying that many religions are based upon several of the same ideas and concepts.. this video is only pointing out an explanation on why this could be occuring and i feel that it is wrong to remove a video that has expressed no opinion of its own towards any religion but enabled people to understand why religion says what it does it sure as hell beats ''because god says so'' or ''because the holy book says so'' thats all i chuffing wrote on my GCSE examination for religious studies and i got a decent pass grade with doing that... this video is just one step towards a concreate answer to WHY it is and doesnt express WHAT the religion says... why do people want to ban it? something to hide?? its like the bleeding holy grail!!!!!!!!!!

Before you go around trying to debunk Christianity, at least get your facts straight. It is very easy to criticize a religion when one doesn't know about it. The most important thing I noticed was how wrong the video was in saying Jesus was born on December 25th, that is just the day that was chosen to celebrate it. The Church has made it very clear that they do not know when Jesus was actually born, so please don't put Dec. 25th as a definitive answer. Also, please correct your grammar mistakes... it's "resurrected" not "ressurected". Also, you call Jesus the newest of these "similar" saviors, but you date Dionysus to 200 AD, so really which is it? Are you lying or did you get the wrong date? Anyways, I write this so that troubled people who have no idea who to believe in realize the misconceptions of your video and go out and seek the truth about these things for themselves. Have a nice day :D

This movie is mildly manipulative and therefore intellectually dissatisfying. However, conspiracy movies like "Loose Change" have every right to declare falsehoods like the best of them. The idealism of a born-again savior predating Christ is true in some regards, but this movie makes connections where connections are not due. As was pointed out, we merely celebrate Christianity on the 25th, which is more like a Hallmark holiday like Valentine's. Please, like any other piece of information, have an open mind and be cautious of fraudulent materials.

If someone loses its faith by a simple video, one must ask how real that faith is. All believes are confused by paradox, while they actually are part of the same reality. This video simply shows that facts & faiths have a similar origin and it isn't right that some proclaim to have the only rights to divinity or truth. To proclaim to have the only true faith is an act of crime against faith itself. Life is vaster then anyone could imagine. To embrace different views and faiths will lead to a deeper understanding of life and a life fulfilled with love and compassion. Religion could and should be a beautiful thing, not a way to manipulate or abuse our life. Anyone who tries giving us more understanding about religion and Opposes manipulators or abusers should be honored!Not banned!

Yes, because this video is a lie, an attack on Christianity, not a video trying to display facts, but manipulating them to form their own "TRUTH." For instance, the religion part of Zeitgeist and how they try to relate many other Pre-Christianity to Jesus, in which they try to relate Jesus to the sun, is the producers of this movie using these false "facts" to their own agenda. I'll give you one of the MANY flaws in this video, I will elaborate on the subject above. People are so gullible and filled with ignorance and hate they are being sucked in by this nonsense. The film makers are misrepresenting Horace as we know it from Egyptology. The film makers are making you believe something about Egyptology that is simply NOT THE TRUTH. And you, are so dumb you don't even see it. Furthermore you don't even know what I am or what I believe. Like the film makers, you don't want the truth. You just want to vent your hatred. Allow me to give you a heads up chissup19. First, it is true that Egyptian legend has Horus being born to Isis. But what about the trailing name of "Mary"? No mention in any Egyptian literature links this. Isis was not a virgin, but the widow of Osiris, another Egyptian god who conceived Horus with Isis. Horus was born during the month of Khoiak (Oct/Nov),a fact which does not help their claim of marrying the stories of Horus to Jesus, anyway the Bible never assigns a birth date to Jesus. The film says a star in the East announced Horace's birth and that three kings came to bring gifts to the "savior." When stories detailing the birth of Horus are examined, there is no star or three kings who come to visit him. Trying to link this to Christianity fails. The Bible has magi; wise men, not kings coming to Jesus with their actual number not being stated. Finally, the movie calls Horus a "savior." Egyptology has no descriptions of Horus a
