It is controversial to be sure - and someone either had money to produce it or talent and did it on their own.

You might think it is propaganda, but as the movie stresses - take what they say with a grain of salt if you want - but then do your own research. IMHO, based on my experiences, this movie is correct on most of its points.

The only thing I disagree with is its condemnation of Christianity as purely a solar-god religion. While I agree that it is - that doesn't make it wrong or evil... At the same time, I still haven't figured out why Rome would want us to worship a Sun-God, but not want us to realize it. It seems to me that worship of the Sun as our Father is not "wrong" per se (as the Hopi point out, the Sun is our Father in a very real sense), so what do they gain from it exactly? Why not have us simply worship "angels" or "sea-gods", etc. Why the Sun?? I believe that the connection with Egypt plays an important role - but not sure how...

The creator of this movie also doesn't believe these are the "end times" - which is strange to me because everything this movie brings light to is just what one associates with the 'end times'.

Still - a fascinating movie for sure.
