Critics of Catholicism/The Zeitgeist Movement
Expert: Joseph Amormino - 11/8/2009
QuestionHi, I'm a catholic person and I'm really interested in relate every action and decision with God. Recently, one friend of mine told me about The Zeitgeist movement,and he also show me certain link where I have been watching the documentary. My question is: Do you think that this movement would be sustainable (I'm talking in long terms? That is to say, is so notorious that they don't believe neither in God or Law. However, under my point of view I guess that they have good proposals about the nature, innovation, technology, etc and about its future management.
AnswerHello Josue,
That is a very good question.
I agree with the movement when they say that the world is in a very sad state.
I agree with them when they say that religion can be a dangerous thing.
But I think they are also a dangerous movement in the fact that they have, how do you say, "thrown out the baby with the buggy"
I think the movement has too much ego in it. They are trying to solve all the problems themselves without acknowledging how they ever got here in the first place.
Where has their life come from? Did they create themsleves? Have they forgot how to go within and find the answers given to them by Spirit.
I think you are a wise person when you say that you "relate every action and decision with God".
That's enough. You don't have to have a mediator anymore. And do you really want to trust the opinion of someone who rejects anything beyond this physical world?
My friend, continue to relate to God directly. Be still in silence and all answers will gladly be given to you by God.
You are on the right path.
Many Blessing,
Joseph
