Zeitgeist Refuted (Part 2)

Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In "Zeitgeist Refuted (Part 2)", Steve Gregg challenges the claims made by the movie "Zeitgeist" about the origins of Christianity and Jesus. The documentary implies that Christianity is based on ancient astrological traditions and pagan mythology, but Gregg argues that these claims lack historical accuracy and evidence. He provides evidence to support the existence of Jesus as a historical figure and argues that the Gospels are a reliable historical record of his life. Gregg plans to give lectures challenging modern challenges to Christianity, such as the Da Vinci Code and claims made by Bart Ehrman and the Jesus Seminar.
