Zeitgeist: The Skeptic Side.

This is gonna ruffle some feathers because a lot of people like this movie, believe in this movie, and accept it as fact, even though scientists and critics across the board have largely dismissed the "documentary" as largely false and misleading. That's no reason not to believe the thing, as there are scientists on the doc. who say the exact opposite, but here is a SUPER thorough website that goes through all parts of the movie and points out, at the very least, why the movie doesn't really prove any of the facts it shows, and in some cases, flat out lies.

Now...I haven't dissected or researched this website, so I'm not saying you should just simply believe it. You shouldn't. That would be just as dumb as blindly believing the movie. I'm not even saying it's right. I've heard much of what he puts forth and have seen much of the same debunking on other websites, but that doesn't make it true. What I am saying is that if you watched the movie and took it as truth, you need to be, at the very least, OPEN to hearing the skeptic side. If you blindly believe one thing, why not at least listen to the other? If you watch the movie with an open mind, you need to look at the skeptics with an open mind as well...if not, your simply believing what your told...and that, at the very basis of things, is what this movie is against.
