NO, not another "enlightened"... Do You really belive that story , nor doesn't it seem a bit manipulated ???
Long story short - I enjoyed it more than Ring 2.

The religion bit stretches a bit. It uses a particular book as a reference (can't remember the name now) but when i looked into it it turned out to be claiming that Santa Claus derived from Siberian shamans eating magic mushrooms and climbing in through the chimneys of local people. While this may or may not be true, i had to question the makers of Zeitgeist for taking such a highly sceptical sources to prove a point that they obviously want to make.
I dare say a lot of the stuff in the documentary is in fact correct, but due to the fact that i know they are, shall we say, 'open minded' about where they draw their data from, i am left wondering what exactly one can do to work out what is well researched and what isn't...
