[asa] Zeitgeist - the Movie

Folks,

Sorry to interrupt the niggling about the nuances in our common belief in
Creation and the Gospels, but I just heard about yet another attack on our
common belief from the artistic media, namely a movie titled "Zeitgeist -
the Movie" : http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/transcript.htm

It appears to be complete "conspiracy theory" nonsense. The Virgin Birth,
Incarnation, twelve apostles, death, Resurrection after three days, are
tied to Bronze Age astrological phenomena and the Sun god. Yoicks!

The reason I bring this up is that a student cited heavily from this movie
transcript in a paper he was writing on the Big Bang and origins. He
seems to have latched onto this nonsense as a reasonable argument for
rejecting the God of the Bible.

The movie is likely campy nonsense, but such nonsense is often scarfed up
by those looking for yet another excuse to reject the Divine.
