In college I studied methods of propaganda in my business courses. Why? Because businesses hype their products-- propaganda at its finest. This class taught not only how to recognize propaganda, but how to use it to market products.So through the years I've watched these principles in operation, in everything from religion to the promotion of Evolution. (Yes... a theory with big gaping logic holes and contradictions of data presented as absolute fact... that is a primary method of propaganda.) The same is true of creationists who believe the universe was created in a literal 7 days... or (insert religion names here) that can't even agree on the identity of God.People swallow these things down whole without even challenging the concepts, without looking further into it, just because "scientists say so" or "my preacher says so". (Exactly what is a "scientist" anyway? I'm a SCIENTIST! Woohoo!). And there are always arrogant people who think they know everything there is to know and anyone who disagrees with them is an uneducated idiot. Undue insistence that one's personal viewpoint is absolute reality and disparaging harassment of those who disagree is another method of propaganda.Humankind in general is gullible, easily influenced, easily mislead, easily fooled. "There is a sucker born every minute" is one of the most accurate concepts on our planet. If nothing else, films like this serve to help people understand propaganda and how it works. People will believe things just because an "authority" (or several "authorities") state it is so. Give them SOME facts, and they'll swallow it ALL down. Tell half truths and people will believe it's all truth. Tell the truth, but exaggerate it... and people will believe the exaggeration. Or tell a lie convincingly and earnestly enough, and people will believe that.It doesn't matter whether someone claims the universe revolves around the Earth, that life can somehow magically appear from nothing, or that mankind never set foot on the moon. Propaganda works and if anything, that is the lesson of films such as this. Such claims depend on one, single solitary fact: most people don't examine, analyze or question what they're told. Most people don't question the agendas of "authority" figures (scientific or religious). Just like those who claim there is "no other life in the universe" (how could they possibly know that?)... or that evolution is the "only way" life on this planet could have come about (seriously?)... mankind as a whole is extremely gullible. No one likes admitting that reality... and few will accept it as truth. We don't really want to know the truth; it tends to inconvenience us and destabilize our comfy belief systems.The difference between the average person and people in power-- is that people in power know that mankind is gullible, and use that to every advantage. If we take away one thing at all from this movie (and those similar to it, no matter what stance they take)... it would be to realize how and why propaganda works, and to wake up so we're no longer affected by it. Religious people swallow down teachings from the pulpit. Evolutionists swallow down claims from "scientists". The truth is most people either don't bother to check the facts for themselves... or do so starting from a biased standpoint and refuse to consider their existing beliefs just might be total hogwash.In general, we need to wake up and smell the roses... which have every chance of being artificially scent-enhanced and colored.

Science has been hi-jacked by powerful, wealthy liars, it's time now for Truth to take over Science, This Documentary signals the beginning of that take over.Here is helpful research to compliment the topics contained within The Principle:The Principle Interview: YouTube.com/watch?v=uIqsVMQGoK0The Principle Under Attack - YouTube.com/watch?v=OvR7pMqAEsoDr Robert Sungenis - YouTube.com/watch?v=554TOFX3FW8The Center Of The Universe - Rick Delano - YouTube.com/watch?v=d7hkC47Tpb4The Center Of The Universe - Robert Sungenis - YouTube.com/watch?v=1kSMNzQ_wzwDr Robert Sungenis Interview June 7, 2014 - YouTube.com/watch?v=0c3aDcvKJW0Expelled No Intelligence Allowed (2008) - YouTube.com/watch?v=V5EPymcWp-gWhere Are We In the Universe - YouTube.com/watch?v=YHykDpLQelw

Geocentrism has been long disproven by everyone with a scientific point of view. This documentary is an attempt to salvage a philosophy hundreds of years after it was unarguably rebuked by observation of the real world. We have sent spacecraft to many places in the solar system, and in every case, Newton's laws of motion have predicted accurate results. Geocentrism is a hoax perpetuated by a desire for human centrality in the workings of a much larger universe. It's basis is not scientific but theological, according to a religious reckoning that even the mainline Catholic Church now rejects. This documentary is a result of people who favor their emotional desires over the hard facts of science that tell us the truth about how all bodies in orbit function. The people who made this documentary used decontextualized footage from unrelated interviews by such personalities as Lawrence Krauss, who couldn't be farther from supporting a geocentrist position. This is a fantasy that relies on disingenuously interpreting quotes from scientists who rebuke the very premise of the film. It's a disgrace to humanity that this film should even exist in this day and age. These are probably the same people who believe the moon landing and the ISS are "hoaxes." Grow up, you ignorant unscientific True Believers. We will move forward with science no matter how hard you try to backpedal against it.

This is an excellent thought-provoking documentary, well worth watching, that presents in a very balanced manner the discussion surrounding the discovery, twice confirmed, of what has been dubbed by the fearful as "the axis of evil" in the cosmic microwave background. Contrary to the idea of Earth being insignificant, this line in the CMB seems to be something of a stage spotlight shining upon Earth. The discovery of this axis in the CMB is remarkable, the magnitude of which will take years to study and fully appreciate. Nonetheless, I think the next time I see a beautiful sunset, or have occasion to look up into the night-time sky in a dark place, when it seems as if you could reach up and touch the stars, I will more greatly appreciate not only the wonder of the moment, but the ability to experience that wonder. There is, I think, something very reassuring in that ability, and it does not speak of chaotic chance.
