positive and negative

Sunday, August 15th, 2010

I want to do a quick post just to clarify something about this blog. This blog is not intended to come off as negative or scare/frighten people. This blog is about what the world is and what the world could be. What the world is today in my view is very broken. We do our best to put a good spin on things but when we take a hard look under the shiny veneer we put on everything we can see that this world is a tough place. I want people to look at the harsh realities so collectively as a group we can do a better job at taking care of each other and the planet. Part of this process is learning about things we would rather not know about. I for one am not going to prescribe myself to the philosophy of H.L. Mencken.

It is the nature of the human species to reject what is true but unpleasant and to embrace what is obviously false but comforting.

So please look at this site as a positive opportunity to get educated and get a new perspective. You are never going to learn anything from the T.V., movies or video games that will help change the course we are all currently on. Jesus Christ left us with the job of loving God and loving our neighbours as ourselves. All I am seeking to do is contrast the teachings of Christ and the Bible with the current conditions and circumstances we face to demonstrate the truth that is found in the Bible. So for this to be accomplished I have to dabble in both the positive and negative.

seen zeitgeist? listen to this…

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009

This week a couple people approached me about the documentary film Zeitgeist. It was the first time they had seen it and they were concerned about the material presented in the film. That movie was by far not new for me and I am quite well versed with the content contained within.

The movie is a three part documentary which covers aspects of religion, government, banking, war and the desire for totalitarian control by a group of elites that wish to rule the world. The primary concerns for these people surrounded the first third of the movie which, to put mildly, is an unbridled assault on Christianity. I’ve heard that this section of this movie has really challenged people and in some cases all-in-all destroyed their faith. If you have seen this movie and had your faith challenged or ruined… or your a person that has always been a non-believer and have looked to this film as final proof for your “soul” to be at peace your non-belief, you need the two audio links below.

They are two sermons that were delivered by Bruxy Cavey, lead pastor of The Meeting House Church. They are in response to the Zeitgeist movie and man-o-man, does he put that film in its place, at least the first third anyway. It’s a must listen, whether you’ve seen the film or not.

I really do recommend you watch the documentary…

My opinion of the film
To focus on the first third of the film, my main question would be why does it only focus on Christianity? The film spends a third of it’s time working to discredit only one religion. If all religions are part of a system of control it would stand to reason that the film would need to inform us and discredit all organized religion. Buddha, Allah, Krishna and so on, not only Jesus and the Christian church.

What I think this film aims to do is to scare people and to kill hope. The last two thirds of the film focuses on the history of wars, government and banking painting a picture of lies, manipulation and deceit. It is all orchestrated into one motive – a one world government and totalitarianism at the hands of a small group that rule a micro chipped population of people. So to summarize the movie delivers a “you’re screwed” message.

Well, this isn’t true…

I am short of time at the moment so I have to call it a rap here. Please watch the films, listen to the sermons, leave some comments. I will expand upon this in my next post, I may re-watch the documentary and get in depth on the subject. Following that I want to finish the second half of a series I started a while back on the ten commandments.
