    时代精神:宗教、政治、经济和战争的真相

        之前看过《时代精神II》,很不错的一部纪录片,那么第一集是必需看的!片子一开头就引用了一个叫G. Massey的埃及学家的话,也许他在西方很有名,但是我不认识他,老美拍纪录片和写论文一样,名人的话要引用,没名气的人的话也引用。这个G. Massey说:“They must find it difficult…Those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority.”这话说得蛮实在的!

        片子分成三个部分,第一部分讲宗教问题,第二部分质疑“9·11”事件的真实性,第三部分讲战争背后的经济驱动。

        宗教部分很长见识,里面说到,与太阳有关的各路神仙之间的共同特点多得惊人,无论是古埃及崇拜的太阳神,还是印度教、波斯教、基督教等等宗教所崇拜的神。以基督教为例,为什么耶稣的母亲玛利亚是处女,为什么耶稣在死后三天复活,为什么耶稣出生在12月25日,复活节为什么设在那一天等等问题,在片中都给予了天文角度的解读。the end of the world是the end of the aeon的误会。aeon的意思是age,根据天球上天赤道与黄道相切点所指向星座的变化,1个age是2150年,从公元1年到公元2150年正好是双鱼座时代,2150年后就进入水瓶座时代。古埃及宗教与犹太教有很多相似的要素,似乎古埃及的宗教就是犹太教的雏形。最后提出,基督教并非建立在真理的基础,而是出于统治社会的政治目的而编撰出来的罗马故事。

        导演认为,宗教如此,911事件也如此,许多战争更是如此。片中的观点是,911事件是美国政府一手策划出来的,正如珍珠港事件、东京湾事件一样,都是参战或发起战争的借口,而战争的背后是巨大的经济利益。简单地用无产阶级的语言说,就是资产阶级统治者与垄断资本家为了巨大的经济利益,沆瀣一气,大力开动战争机器,欺骗和谋害广大劳动人民。

        其中的观点正确与否无关紧要,只要能够自圆其说,观点鲜明新颖,论证严密,论据充足,就是一部好的纪录片。这类纪录片的出现,本身代表了时代的进步。我想,教育的目的之一,就是让人能够独立思考,分清authority和truth;或者说,敢于独立思考,敢于分清authority和truth,敢于发出不同的声音,发出自己的声音。
