This is a clip of the documentary Zeitgeist. This segment explains the connection of religion and the movement of the heavens.

The film's first segment, 28-minutes in duration, is unparalleled in its succinct yet potent discussion of religion, and its relation to history and current culture. Splendid narration, background music, and visuals make this segment spellbinding. But more importantly, the message is factual and nothing short of profound.

For all you Christians out there, Happy Easter Sunday. Yes, I'm aware of the bizarre twists and turns this completely Syncretic holiday went down. But at least you get a combination of Martyr complex with a Germanic Goddess of fertility. That would make for some really weird Fanfiction, I must say. Either that or the next big Tween Love story.
