Storyline:
How much do you *really* know about how Christianity got started? Whether you are a Christian, atheist, or member of another faith, it's impossible to ignore the impact that Christianity has had on Western civilization. But most people, including many Christians, don't have a solid grasp of the history of early Christianity - even though it's hinted at in the New Testament. Many people still think the gospels were written by the people whose names adorn the books. Many people still think those people were eyewitnesses of Jesus. Many people don't realize how much Paul of Tarsus reinvented early Christianity to suit his own vision, and how much tension he created with the original disciples. Over the last century, New Testament scholars have examined the text word by word to tease apart the true history from accepted tradition. In this light-heated but factual film, we tell the "true" story of early Christianity with the help of twelve biblical scholars, Renaissance masterpieces and humorous animation. It's neither a film about faith nor a film attacking or making fun of Christianity. It's an honest attempt to piece together a very complex and fascinating story that everyone will enjoy.

Reviews:
"Did Jesus exist?

Cameron Reilly has created a fantastic historical analysis of how Christianity was formed, grew, and the internal conflicts inside the religion. There are fantastic interviews with many notable religious studies and history professors from around the world.

This is a wonderful scholarly work, and really casts new light on to the development of who wrote the bible, when, and how this evolved over 2,000 years. Discussions of how Judaism and Christianity are fascinating.

Highly recommended. Also there are many funny parts. It is really an engaging movie for anyone who enjoys history, religion, etc. This is not boring, it is a really fun movie and will intrigue you and educate you. Great for any night of the week." Written by dave-54796 on IMDb.com

"I have struggled to watch documentaries for years now. Most lose my interest because they don't ask compelling enough questions about the topic they're exploring. I couldn't make it through Religulous for this very reason-it was just too easy. I'm one who doesn't consider Christianity-or religion in general-to be some joke that any adolescent can dismantle with a couple of clichés. But I very much appreciate sophisticated questions, and that's exactly what this documentary is chock full of. It's also fun to watch from beginning to end. I laughed out loud several times and had to rewind. One of the best things is that this documentary is CLEAN. I very much appreciated this as I have little kids crawling all over me at all times. I am definitely looking forward to the next Deep Dive production!" Written by Mr_Crimso on IMDb.com

It's hard to believe but silver was at one time worth more than gold. China used silver as their currency and the West had to pay in silver for Chinese goods. This angered the British and so they sought a commodity that the Chinese would be forced to buy. China did not covet any goods that the West had except one: Opium.

Technology at work for the public: http://bit.ly/2pPb0Ee

“It’s not a matter of if you will be hacked as an organization, it’s a matter of when.”
____

Matt Mitchell, a hacker working at the intersection of social justice and technology, says organizations must be proactive in protecting themselves from hackers. That means having “an understanding of the digital threats and planning before problems occur,” he says.

Technology is transforming every area of our lives. But as it opens new avenues and shows us fresh possibilities, tech can also deepen existing inequalities. We believe in harnessing technology to serve justice and the public interest—and we see a wealth of opportunities to do so.

That’s why the Ford Foundation is working with a community of partners to develop a path for people to use their technology skills to change the world for the better: the professional field of public interest technology. Public interest technology is just what it sounds like—technology used to serve the public good. That can mean working to ensure that as the U.S. census goes online for the first time, it is accessible and accurate. It can mean researching the negative side effects of using artificial intelligence in our criminal justice system or even developing technical standards that emphasize privacy and free expression.

"Brotherhood of Death" is a 1976 American film directed by Bill Berry. It falls within the exploitation genre and is notable for its portrayal of racial issues, particularly during the Civil Rights Movement era.

The film follows three African American Vietnam War veterans who return to their hometown in the American South, only to find that racism and discrimination are still rampant. They witness a white police officer unjustly shooting a black man and decide to take matters into their own hands. The veterans form a vigilante group called the "Brotherhood of Death" to fight against racial injustice and protect their community.

"Brotherhood of Death" addresses themes of racism, discrimination, and the struggle for equality. It explores the complexities of racial tensions in the United States during the 1970s, drawing parallels between the experiences of black soldiers fighting abroad and the challenges they face upon returning home.

The film received mixed reviews upon its release, with some critics praising its exploration of important social issues and others criticizing its low production values and melodramatic elements. However, it remains a notable example of exploitation cinema from the 1970s and is remembered for its attempt to address important social issues within the context of genre filmmaking.
