The more you begin to investigate,
what we think we understand, where we came from,
what we think we're doing,
the more you begin to see we've been lied to.
We've been lied to by every institution.
What makes you think for one minute
that the religious institution is the only
one that has never been touched.
The religious institutions of this world
are at the bottom of the dirt.
The religious institutions in this world are
put there by the same people who gave you
your government, your corrupt education,
who set up your international banking cartels.
Because our masters don't give a damn
about you or your family.
All they care about is what they have always cared about
and that's controlling the whole damn world.
We have been misled away from the true
and divine presence in the universe
that men have called 'God'.
I don't know what God is but I know what he isn't.
And unless and until you are prepared
to look at the whole truth
wherever it may go, whoever it may lead to,
if you want to look the other way,
or if you want to play favourites
then somewhere along the line you're gonna find out
you're messing with the divine justice.
The more you educate yourself, the more you understand
where things come from - the more obvious things become
and you begin to see lies everywhere.
You have to know the truth
and seek the truth
and the truth will set you free.
...'cause I gotta tell you the truth folks,
I gotta tell you the truth.
When it come to bullshit,
big-time-major-league bullshit,
you have to stand in awe of the all time champion
of false promises and exaggerated claims -
religion.
Think about it!
Religion has actually convinced people
that there's an invisible man, living in the sky
who watches everything you do,
And the invisible man has a special list
of ten things he does not want you to do.
And if you do any of these ten things,
he has a special place
full of fire and smoke
and burning and torture and anguish
where he will send you to live and suffer
and burn and choke and scream and cry
for ever and ever till the end of time.
But he loves you!
He loves you.
He loves you and he needs money.
He's all powerful, all perfect,
all knowing and all wise.
Somehow - just can't handle money!
Religion takes in billions of dollars,
they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more.
Now, you talk about a good bullshit story!
Holy shit!
This is the Sun.
As far back as 10.000 BC
history is abundant with carvings and writings
reflecting people's respect and adoration for this object
And it is simple to understand why
as every morning the Sun would rise
bringing vision, warmth and security
saving man from the cold, blind,
predator filled darkness of night.
Without it, the cultures understood,
the life on the planet would not survive.
These realities make the Sun
the most adored object of all time.
Likewise, they were also very aware of the stars.
The tracking of the stars allowed them to
recognize and anticipate events
which occurred of a long period's of time,
such as eclipses and full moons.
They in turn catalogued celestial groups
in what we know today as constellations.
This is the cross of the zodiac,
one of the oldest conceptual images in human history.
It reflects the Sun as it figuratively passes through
the 12 major constellations over the course of a year.
It also reflects the 12 months of the year,
the four seasons, and the solstices and equinoxes.
