hello Edward Winston
You say many interesting things that I just have to adhere to. But my question to you is, why haven't you made a movie concerning the truth, I mean it's just to easy to write an Article about what you as a whole truly believe in. It is true that the Government sometimes pay people to write an article to falsify what they are afraid of. But would the government try and make a movie about what is real? Would they really pay to make a movie that contradicts a The Zeitgeist? I really think that they wouldn't, they instead find a cheaper way to puzzle someone into thinking what the truth really is. That is where you may come in. I mean Im not certain but when I see you put you fullest input and effort to really help those in need then I would think different. And I'm not talking about a youtube 10 minute video, we as a society need you to show your true evidence and resources.

>> But my question to you is, why haven't you made a movie concerning the truth, I mean it's just to easy to write an Article about what you as a whole truly believe in.

Because I don't really know how to make movies. It may be "easy to write an article about what you .. truly believe in" but I'm not doing that, I'm researching things conspiracy theorists say and finding out whether or not they're true.

>> It is true that the Government sometimes pay people to write an article to falsify what they are afraid of.

Not as much as they used to in the 1960s and 70s.

>> But would the government try and make a movie about what is real?

Uh... well conspiracy theories aren't real.

>> Would they really pay to make a movie that contradicts a The Zeitgeist?

No, because Zeitgeist doesn't really have that many followers nor do they pose any kind of real danger except to the time and money of the followers.

>> I really think that they wouldn't, they instead find a cheaper way to puzzle someone into thinking what the truth really is.

Yes, let me guess, they pick a crappy blog with about 1/50th the page views as the Zeitgeist movement? Great plan!

>> That is where you may come in.

Of course, because anyone who disagrees with you has to be paid to, right?

>> I mean Im not certain but when I see you put you fullest input and effort to really help those in need then I would think different. And I'm not talking about a youtube 10 minute video, we as a society need you to show your true evidence and resources.

What the hell are you talking about? Not only do I not know how to make movies, I'm not really interested in doing it, and I don't feel obligated to either. There are plenty of skeptics who do make movies, such as Brian Dunning, and there are shows like Bullshit. I have shown my "true evidence" but because it doesn't fit the conspiracy world view, then it's obviously not true.

Isn't it interesting that Peter Joseph can make a claim with zero evidence and be believed, but if I say he's wrong I need more evidence than could ever be available to prove it? Sounds like a religion and less like science.
