^ They have clarifications on the website, one talks about how the bible doesn't say Jesus was born on the 25th, but that the date used in tradition.
What research? Wikipedia? You have to look deeper then whatever popped up on a google search.
Here is the statement from the website.
Welcome to the Official Site for 'Zeitgeist, the Movie.'
Since the emergence of the work in late June, 2007, many other websites,
organizations and posts have fallaciously claimed connections to the work.
Please note that 'Zeitgeist', along with this site, has no direct affiliation with
anything else online.
Zeitgeist, produced by Peter Joseph, was created as a nonprofit filmiac expression to
inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that
very often things are not what the population at large think they are. The information in Zeitgeist
was established over a year long period of research and the current Source page on
this site lists the basic sources used / referenced and the Interactive Transcript includes
exact source references and further information.
Now, it's important to point out that there is a tendency to simply disbelieve things that are
counter to our understanding, without the necessary research performed.
For example, some information contained in Part 1 and Part 3, specifically, is not obtained
by simple keyword searches on the Internet. You have to dig deeper. For instance,
very often people who look up "Horus" or "The Federal Reserve" on the Internet
draw their conclusions from very general or biased sources. Online encyclopedias or text book
Encyclopedias often do not contain the information contained in Zeitgeist. However, if one takes
the time to read the sources provided, they will find that what is being presented is
based on documented evidence. Any corrections, clarifications & further points regarding the film
are found on the Clarifications page. Non-Profit DVDs / Free Video Downloads are
available through the Downloads page.
That being said, It is my hope that people will not take what is said
in the film as the truth, but find out for themselves, for truth is not told, it is realized.
Thank You
