I'm an atheist so the first one struck a special chord with me.

One thing that absolutely flabbergasts me is the accusation that the Zeitgeist films are anti-semitic. I saw no such thing! I am so perplexed about that. The only thing I can think of is people like Alex Jones interpret the Zeitgeist films in their own twisted ways and that has taken off as what the films are about, when they're not.

Anyway, I find all that really creepy that a film that exposes and questions some of the great puzzles of our times is pointed at and screamed ANTI-SEMITE! and can't even be allowed on GD.

but I don't know, maybe I missed something obvious.
