Zeitgeist Addendum gives food for thought
Yesterday I had a chance to watch the movie “Zeitgeist Addendum”. Looking at the evidence I can absolutely live with the fact that Jesus shared the same fate with Horus, an Egyptian God who also rose from the dead and also shared several similarities in other aspects of his life. This is something I could even agree with. I know there is GOD, I believe in Jesus. I speak directly with GOD, not with Jesus. Like one of my friends stated recently: “Why should I talk to the son if I want to reach the father? I talk directly to the Boss.” And yes, there is a God! A GOD of love, peace and understanding. Jesus Christ changed the message from the violence of the Old Testament to love, peace and understanding.
But apart from the interesting religious statements made in the movie, everything else is also well thought out and well researched as well as less controversial. The way the richest and wealthiest deal with the poorest in their country, as well as the assassinations of heads of state, have never been a secret to me and the western world. And the events stated in the movie have not been secret either - at least to the Western world outside the United States.
Such as addendum shows the truth how nations are being mistreated and handled in the name of big capital, how people are being killed for money, how heads of state who are trying to do the right thing for their countries are being blackmailed first and then if this doesn't help being assassinated by the US is not new, but a necessary reminder of what has been going on in our country. One of the few who resisted and survived was Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, who not surprisingly asked the Russians for military support against the people who are trying to kill him, the United States.
And once again we prove that big politics are free from ethics and free from moral restraints. And those are the people who call the Moslems murderers. They go to church. They claim Jesus Christ as their savior and appear to the public to abide in the moral rules of the church. If you claim to follow Jesus Christ, you HAVE to follow his commandments and rules:
1. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.
2. Love your neighbor as yourself.
3. Honor your father and your mother.
4. You shall not murder.
5. You shall not commit adultery.
6. You shall not steal.
7. You shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
8. You shall not covet anything that is thy neighbor's.
9. Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
Jesus said:
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' (Matthew 22:36-40)
You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. (Matthew 5:43)
[Romans 13:8-11] Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

As it seems, there are no moral rules that apply to heads of state. All they adhere to is the orders of the richest people and the call of money. It is beyond me how anybody could claim to be Christian and at the same time kill people, rob their own people of their money and declare a whole religion to be enemies or terrorists or whatever we are calling the Muslim world. Not to say that that some Muslims don't do the same thing. The radical leaders in the Middle East do exactly the same thing that the radical “fascist right wing Christians” are doing here, they are just heading in the opposite direction.
Zeitgeist Addendum points out which other options we would have. Instead of supporting big oil and the war machines we could actually produce clean energy from wind, solar, or geothermal processes and everybody could live happily without starving. And this would not apply only to the richest and wealthiest in industrialized countries, it would apply to everybody. The so-called Venus project is showing ways to realize these dreams and it is at least worth watching what the suggestions are.
If you should get a chance to see Zeitgeist Addendum - before that you should actually watch Zeitgeist - you should definitely do it. You can get the movies and watch the movies on www.Zeitgeistmovie.com.
I also had time to watch some 9/11 movies and I am still deeply concerned how it is possible that the marketing of B.S. can be so successful in suppressing and altering the truth. All the American government did was market a lie. All the efforts to show the truth, including film footage and unaltered photos make it so clear even to the dumbest person that the story the government has been selling to us cannot possibly be true.
But the government is able to present their very own, well paid, government contractors lying on television. People like Bill O'Reilly, Beck, Sean Hannity, and others are only too willing to keep their careers by the grace of the right wing fascist and treat people who tell the truth like dirt. One highly embarrassing example is the initial mistranslation of a remark the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made and the following interview, held by – seemingly a CIA interrogator – who falsely accused the President of telling lies. The – democratically elected (other than W. Bush who was appointed by his brother’s superior court protégée and who also fixed the election the second time around) President of a sovereign country patiently insisted that he was telling the truth, but the US interviewer insisted that it was a lie. A few days later, the whole world knew that the President of Iran had spoken the truth and the ignorant American had been lying. That is the picture the Cheney administration showed to the world over and over again. It is sad and embarrassing to see people act this way. And yes, he calls himself a Christian.
Especially with my journalistic background it is hard to understand how anybody who remotely claims to be something like a journalist can act this way. Those so-called journalists are government puppets and have sold out. They sold their soul to the devil and traded the truth for money. Yes and they all do it in the name of Christ.
But the systematic mistreatment and elimination of people who tell the truth has a long tradition in the world. The latest one that has been prosecuted, also by the US, was the Nazi regime in Germany and there, besides Marketing genius Joseph Goebbels, the President of the highest German Court, Roland Freisler, who made sure no one could answer a question he posed in cutting the victim off and yelling at them without even giving them a chance to say the truth.
Today’s Show trials are being held by ignorant right wing (which already implies ignorant) servants of the likes of Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly and others who try to discredit their interview partners in the worst way imaginable. These are Freisler-like show trials, not interviews. If you doubt this statement, feel free to listen to Roland Freisler, there is plenty of footage available, and then to one of the aforementioned Clowns. And please keep in mind that Freisler’s verdict meant death. The best place to hold these modern trials against the truth is the Fox television network. FOX News is the only “News-station”, and I use the word VERY loosely, in the world that has a court ruling in their favor, that their news do not have to contain any truth. And as you can tell, they don’t.
