A point-by-point rebuttal of the claims made in the internet film Zeitgeist, the Movie, which argued that Christianity borrowed its central figure and story from pagan mystery religions like those of Horus, Mithras, and Dionysus. The film works through those parallel claims one at a time, citing biblical scholars and historians, including anthropologist Sir Edward Evans-Pritchard, to test whether the supposed similarities hold up against the actual ancient texts and archaeological record. Text-on-screen citations and quoted passages let viewers check the sources rather than take the narrator's word for it, and the tone stays argumentative rather than devotional, aimed squarely at dismantling a specific set of claims rather than making a broader case for faith. It functions as a direct response film, structured around the same points Zeitgeist raised, and assumes some familiarity with that film's arguments going in. The result is less a general history of comparative religion than a focused cross-examination of one popular theory.
