Since its release in 2007 the internet film Zeitgeist has been seen
by 50 million people around the world. The film attacks the
foundations of Christianity by claiming that the historical Jesus
never existed. Jesus was originally a solar deity, whose story
closely parallels several other pagan gods. The story of Jesus life
is best understood as an astrological analogy. When the first
Council of Nicaea met in 325 under the direction of the Roman
Emperor Constantine, the Christ myth was rewritten as if it were
real historical fact. While some of the ideas in the Zeitgeist film
are based in fact, others are pure fiction. Tim Callahan, religion
editor for Skeptic Magazine, joins us on the show to share his
critique of the film. Reasonable Doubts: Your skeptical guide to
religion offering news and commentary of interest to skeptics,
atheists, humanists, apologists looking for a challenge and
freethinkers of all persuasions.
