5.0 out of 5 stars Must-See Video
At last I understand why President Bush ordered the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq -- he is following the 400+ year plan of Sir Francis Bacon and Queen Elizabeth I, as his own words during his Second Inaugural Address proves conclusively!

1.0 out of 5 stars Lacks intellectual rigor...
The director (Pinto) ignores how Freemasonry has dramatically changed. The Freemasonry movement of several centuries ago was vastly different than the Freemasonry we see today. Albert Pike substantially changed Freemasonry doctrine and philosophy after the Civil War. All of Pinto's work should be examined carefully due to such consistently sloppy scholarship. He leans...

5.0 out of 5 stars Must-See Video, May 25, 2006
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
At last I understand why President Bush ordered the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq -- he is following the 400+ year plan of Sir Francis Bacon and Queen Elizabeth I, as his own words during his Second Inaugural Address proves conclusively! This documentary is one of the best I have ever seen, as it proves its points with excellent documentation and ever better camera work and scriptwriting.

This film deserves the accolades it has received from the New York Film Festival!

If you know in your heart that something is not right with America, but cannot put your finger on the problem, this video will enlighten you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great documentary -- don't be deceived, October 1, 2006

This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
This is a great documentary, filled with powerful and unique information not included in most histories of America. The 1-star reviewer who has criticized the film mentions issues that mostly appear nowhere on screen. He is drawing conclusions based upon his personal suspicions, rather than any concrete evidence pertaining to the film. "Gord" suggests that producer, David Bay, is in support of the Ecumenical Movement -- but fails to mention that Bay's Cutting Edge website ([...]) strongly condemns Rome, the Vatican, and the Ecumenical movement (check out the "Thus Saith Rome" section of the site). Bay also does not support Pat Robertson, but exposes him as one of the pastors who has taken money from Rev. Sun Yung Moon (a false teacher who says that he is greater than Jesus Christ).

Furthermore, this film NOWHERE mentions the King James Bible, neither does it suggest (AT ALL) that Francis Bacon "translated" the KJV (a popular belief among occultists). Also, the film's writer/director, Christian J. Pinto, is a strong supporter of the King James translation -- something "Gord" seems unaware of. Meanwhile, the leading Baconian scholar in the film (Peter Dawkins) has stated elsewhere that "no records" exist of Bacon's involvement with the KJV, and that the KJV translators are well known and that Bacon was not among them. David Bay has likewise repeated this information in at least one radio interview. While Bay's views on the KJV are controversial, his contention is not with the translation, but rather, with the esoteric artwork drawn onto the pages of the early KJV editions (which are beyond dispute).

But the real story with "Secret Mysteries" has to do with the influence of Sir Francis Bacon on the founding of America, through the secret societies of Freemasonry and Rosicrucianism. The film reveals that while Christians came to America through the Puritan/Pilgrim movement, they were not alone. With them came certain esoteric groups that believed America was destined to become a philosophic empire that would one day extend to all the world. What the film is really telling us is that Bacon's "New Atlantis" and the current drive toward a "New World Order" are one and the same thing.

Also, the film reveals that Bacon referred to himself as the "Herald of the New Age" who came to herald "the coming of the Christ" (according to Peter Dawkins). As such, Bacon's New Atlantis was designed to lay the groundwork for what will eventually become the kingdom of Antichrist -- prophesied in the Bible. This is why this documentary is important to Christians.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-See Documentary!, May 12, 2006
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
"Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings" presents eye-opening information about the true founding of our country. It will transform your understanding of history and help you better understand current world events. It makes compelling arguments about the future of our nation.

I highly recommend this documentary and believe that everyone should watch it, as it unravels historical facts that are not taught in school. I was amazed to hear about the plan for the New Atlantis, and the influence of Queen Elizabeth, Sir Francis Bacon and secret societies on the founding of America. I was blown away by the dealings of Benjamnin Franklin and how his connections to the French and British secret societies influenced his work.

The documentary establishes a common thread behind the very beginnings of our country, all the way through current events (such as the Iraq war), and the future destiny of America.

The production quality is excellent, with powerful footage, insightful re-enactments, and dynamic musical score. It was great to see Rosslyn Chapel footage, and learn more about the Knight Templars, especially after hearing so much about them from the Da Vinci Code.

Buy this DVD, and get informed, so that you can make a difference in the way your children view the future! I am a mother of two children, and I want to make sure that they learn the true history of our nation. I also want to take a pro-active approach in their understanding of the future. This documentary is a great tool to equip parents to better explain the past and the present to their children, so that they can grow up with a realistic view of what is going on.

5.0 out of 5 stars The truth you were never told..., May 13, 2006
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
Wow! Get a notebook and pen handy and get the history lesson you never learned in school, or college! This is such an advanced and contemporary DVD, I feel I learned more in an hour than all my years in school. It's so in depth and has such detail, that it's hard not to believe the claims made in the DVD. There is so much evidence given, that it is absolutely convincing. Great!!

5.0 out of 5 stars enlightenment, April 24, 2008
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
I highly recommend these films The New Atlantis and volume II Riddles In Stone. These are brilliant documentaries that reveal the truth of America's secret origins and symbolism from the ancient mysteries. The films focus on the intentions of Francis Bacon and the founding fathers in creating a new Atlantis, a nation of enlightenment that would lead the world into a new order of the ages. These films are very detailed and very well crafted. Puts focus on secret societies and men like Bacon, Benjamin Franklin, Albert Pike, and the great works of Manly P. Hall. These films are a must see.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Entire History Lesson in One DVD, June 8, 2006
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
After much anticipation, I was finally able to view the new DVD from Cutting Edge entitled "Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings - Vol I. - The New Atlantis". Having seen the 15 minute preview of the DVD, I knew it was going to be top of the line when finished and I was not disappointed.
The approach to the two-sided coin surrounding the beginning of this nation, reveals so many hidden plans and strategies that many involved from the beginning were not even aware of. The amount of documentation is staggering and I will be viewing it several times in order to glean it all.
The quality of the production is excellent and definitely History Channel caliber. It certainly "wets your appetite" for the addition presentations forthcoming. The only downside is the amount of time we will have to wait
for the next volume to be released. This truly is a masterpiece and very evident that it has been twelve years in the making. This will prove to be a classic for a long time to come. How imperative someone has finally approached such an important documentary of the two sided coin of the beginning of these United States.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must See, October 2, 2007
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
A great documentary that asks a lot of thought-provoking questions.

I did not think that I would be able to sit through a 3-hour documentary, but I watched the entire thing as if it were an action-packed movie. I've even watched various parts over and over again.

I've become a fan of the film maker, as he shows that he does an exhaustive amount of research. Also, all the images and graphics are just as good as any mainstream documentary that hits theaters.

I also recommend that others check out the other documentaries put out by this director which could be viewed for free on sites like Google Video and YouTube.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every American Should See This, August 24, 2009
This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
This documentary is very good, with only a few criticisms: some really bad acting (especially in "Capt. William Morgan" segment), some repetitive use of acting segments and they do chase a couple of rabbit trails to nowhere.

With that said, the documentary is well worth the money. There is GREAT information that you will not find in most documentaries regarding the founding of our nation and, I would guess, some information that you will not find anywhere--especially in such a quality program. I especially appreciated the information on Freemasonry.

Most Americans probably have little or no knowledge about the influence of Francis Bacon on our founding. And I have met few who know the truth about William Shakespeare. (I have been called a "nut" when sharing this information, but they always backtrack when I mention Mark Twain's book and his well-established conclusions on the matter.)

Most of us will want to watch this several times. I highly recommend this DVD.

This review is from: Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings: The New Atlantis -- Volume 1 (DVD)
If you really want to know the low-down on the true story of America's Secret Beginnings, then look no further. One warning though, this isn't what you learned in school, but its all sourced and documented. It'll change how you look at this country and the world forever.
