believe in "Organized Religion", but that doesn't mean I don't believe in the possibility of a higher power of sorts. Religion is merely a means to control people, which is why it's the messenger I have a problem with.

I especially liked the first Zestiest Movie for the way it covered Religion, Government and Federal Reserve. Very informative even for those that don't believe what is in the video.

Basically according to Zestiest Movie, Jesus was not even a footnote in history to the Romans and people of the time until around 400 years after Jesus had passed away. Then Romans needed a way to control the mass's and Christianity was created.

I also liked the link of religious history and stories through the ages and the fact that everything was likely based on the solar events and earth seasonal cycles.

The other two videos made afterwards are interesting, but are more "movement" oriented. Another interesting title on NetFlix is "The God Who Wasn't There"
