The Origin of Christianity (2004)

ripped by Pax681 exclusively for CONCEN

Director: Gerard Mordillat | Jerome Prieur

Description
------------------
Facets Video presents an extensive, 10-hour investigation of the birth of the Christian faith and its development with the DVD release of Origin of Christianity. The 4-disc special edition sparked a storm of controversy when it was originally released in France by Arte Video. Featured on the covers of national magazines and the subject of intense debate, Origin of Christianity quickly became Arte's best-selling DVD title of all time.

Prieur and Mordillat spent over three years assembling and interviewing 23 of the world's most astute historians, archeologists, and writers on religion to probe the emergence of Christianity. They bring to their lucid discussions state-of-the-art research into the most explosive issues in the Christian world, including: Did Jesus found the Church? Is Jesus God? Did Jesus have siblings? What is the relationship between Judaism and Christianity? And who was the Apostle Paul, and was he the true founder of the Church?

The program has a running time of 520 minutes and contains both English and French language versions.(i include the english sountrack only - Pax681)

Arte France, the creators of Origin of Christianity, is one of the leading DVD producers and distributors in the world.

This 10-part French program is like a college classroom experience more than a standard documentary. What that means is that the presentation is on the remarkably dry side, but the material is rich, detailed and at times dizzying—especially for those with just a casual understanding of the subject.
