So something crossed my desk called the “Advent Conspiracy”.  I figured it was another Zeitgeist video filled with half truths culminating in some crazy message trying to convince us that “They control the world!”

To the contrary, there is no conspiracy.  It’s just some group of Christians trying to de-commercialize the holidays.  Very new age, emerging Christian, help the environment type of thing.  For instance, they claim that their efforts actually produce cleaner water.  That’s right, by buying fewer gifts and donating more to charity, you will create clean water.  I’m sure by some six degrees of separation that’s true.

Anyways, the video follows.  If you ask me, it sounds like a wonderful sales pitch to churches who need a “new” holiday program for their church to run this year, complete with videos, books, workbooks, and sermon notes.  Other than that, nothing news worthy here.  The person who put this on my desk will be forced to cook their lunch using only a toaster for the next week.  (Haha, good luck with your frozen Salisbury Steak frozen dinner! )

Warning! The feel good, “I just drank a gallon of inspirational holy water” music gets a bit loud, then louder, then louder with voices.
