Hello earthluva -

Here's what I think.
1. I've seen these "debunkings" for years. Part of my Ph.D studies was in Christology. For me there's nothing new under the sun here. I found them unpersuasive years ago, and still do today. No one, in my mind, should pay attention to "Zeitgeist" except as a small yet somewhat interesting cultural phenomenon.
2. Dr. Foreman's criticisms are on target. I think so. Obviously, you don't. Fine.
But for that reason this is not something I'm pursuing anymore, since the pursuit of Zeitgeist-criticisms is, for me, like pursuing unicorns. Obviously, since I see things that way, I'm not feeling like spending even more time debunking things that have been debumked years ago.
It was my sad duty to post what I find to be intelligible thoughts on this only because one of my college philosophy students watched Z and asked me about it.
BTW - I've polled my students over the years about Z, and 1% (if that) have even heard of it. Virtually no one has watched it.
I wish you the best as you continue to pursue these things.
