00:00:02,460 --> 00:00:04,921
Hi. My name is
Richard Schenkman,
and I directed
2
00:00:04,921 --> 00:00:06,464
"Jerome Bixby's
The Man from Earth",
3
00:00:06,464 --> 00:00:08,299
as well as the movie
you're about to watch,
4
00:00:08,299 --> 00:00:09,968
"The Man from Earth: Holocene".
5
00:00:09,968 --> 00:00:11,970
My team and I are working
very hard to make sure
6
00:00:11,970 --> 00:00:14,097
that every single
person in the world
7
00:00:14,097 --> 00:00:17,100
who wants to see the movie
can stream or download it,
8
00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:19,477
even to the point of
uploading it ourselves
9
00:00:19,477 --> 00:00:21,104
to the
file-sharing community.
10
00:00:21,104 --> 00:00:24,608
But while it's true that
many people will have
free access to the movie,
11
00:00:24,608 --> 00:00:26,943
that hardly means
it was free to make.
12
00:00:26,943 --> 00:00:29,863
Dozens of people worked for
months or years on the film
13
00:00:29,863 --> 00:00:31,698
and they deserve
to be paid,
14
00:00:31,698 --> 00:00:34,117
just as you deserve to be paid
for the work that you do,
15
00:00:34,117 --> 00:00:36,912
whatever that work is
and wherever it is you do it.
16
00:00:36,912 --> 00:00:40,832
That's why I'm so grateful
to all of you who visit
ManFromEarth.com
17
00:00:40,832 --> 00:00:43,251
and make a donation,
of any size,
18
00:00:43,251 --> 00:00:46,713
if you've watched the movie
without paying for it upfront.
19
00:00:46,713 --> 00:00:49,465
It's a global experiment
in the honor system.
20
00:00:49,465 --> 00:00:53,011
We're asking people:
"If you watch our movie,
and you like it
21
00:00:53,011 --> 00:00:57,140
will you pay something directly
to the people who made it?"
22
00:00:57,140 --> 00:00:59,768
Thank you again
for your support,
and I hope you enjoy
23
00:00:59,768 --> 00:01:01,102

Prehistoric chicks
are kind of hot.
29
00:02:33,111 --> 00:02:36,573
- I'd tap that.
- Yeah, I bet you would.
30
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:40,243
TEEN BOY #2:
Look at this guy.
He's like, half animal...
31
00:02:40,243 --> 00:02:42,370
Uh, he's the same as us.
32
00:02:42,370 --> 00:02:44,581
Homo Sapiens, everyone?
33
00:02:44,956 --> 00:02:48,585
Genetically, biologically
no different than you or I.
34
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,255
We even live
in the same geological epoch
as them.
35
00:02:52,255 --> 00:02:53,882
The Holocene.
36
00:02:53,882 --> 00:02:57,468
Now, it started right
after the last ice age.
37
00:02:57,468 --> 00:03:00,931
The fact is Cro-Magnon
is an out-dated term that...
it merely separates
38
00:03:00,931 --> 00:03:03,975
them as Europeans,
as opposed to Africans.
39
00:03:05,727 --> 00:03:07,563
Any of this ringing a bell?

(SIGHS)
41
00:03:10,190 --> 00:03:11,775
You know,
they had the same...
42
00:03:11,775 --> 00:03:14,027
hopes and fears as us.
The same...
43
00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:16,572
ties to family and group.
44
00:03:16,572 --> 00:03:19,575
Uh, actually, I think they had
stronger ties to group
than us.
45
00:03:19,575 --> 00:03:21,827
And to their
fellow living creatures.
46
00:03:22,202 --> 00:03:25,956
But let's think about it.
If this man
were alive today...
47
00:03:25,956 --> 00:03:28,792
- He would be very old.
- (LAUGHTER)
48
00:03:28,792 --> 00:03:32,378
Especially considering
most never made it
past thirty-two.
49
00:03:32,378 --> 00:03:36,883
He might even appreciate
antibiotics
and running shoes.
50
00:03:37,425 --> 00:03:41,137
But what would he think
of what we've done
with our world today?
51
00:03:41,137 --> 00:03:44,641
This small knit group that
he would have died
to maintain
52
00:03:44,641 --> 00:03:48,854
is now a self-involved
generation of
social media addicts
53
00:03:48,854 --> 00:03:53,149
so far removed
from his perception
of humanity
54
00:03:53,149 --> 00:03:56,069
it has to seem alien.
55
00:03:56,069 --> 00:03:57,904
She's talking
about you, bro'.

Sorry.
58
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:03,493
Let's talk about tools.
59
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,579
TEEN BOY #2:
You're a tool.
60
00:04:05,579 --> 00:04:08,373
CAROLYN:
The most basic tool
would be a simple rock.
61
00:04:08,373 --> 00:04:10,792
with a hammer stone
you can break another rock
62
00:04:10,792 --> 00:04:12,503
and create a sharp edge.
63
00:04:12,503 --> 00:04:15,589
Now, this sharp flake
of stone
can be used to skin...
64
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:17,132
TARA:
You almost done?
65
00:04:18,299 --> 00:04:20,218
Not really.
66
00:04:20,511 --> 00:04:23,138
Can't you just
take pictures?
67
00:04:23,138 --> 00:04:24,890
ISABEL:
That's not the assignment.
68
00:04:24,890 --> 00:04:27,225
Professor Shulman wants us
to identify the
69
00:04:27,225 --> 00:04:30,436
individual markers that
indicate a skull is, say...
70
00:04:30,812 --> 00:04:32,480
Paranthropus Boisei
71
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,983
versus
Paranthropus Robustus.
72
00:04:34,983 --> 00:04:36,985
- Oh, my God.
- What?
73
00:04:37,861 --> 00:04:40,071
That's Professor Young.
74
00:04:40,614 --> 00:04:43,158
What the hell
is he doing here?
75
00:04:43,158 --> 00:04:45,786
Professor Kittriss
is giving those kids a tour.
76
00:04:46,036 --> 00:04:50,165
Oh, and he tags along.
That's so cute.
77

(EXHALES)
78
00:04:54,127 --> 00:04:57,088
For God's sake, Tara,
they live together.
79
00:04:57,088 --> 00:05:00,383
And besides,
he's like a thousand.
80
00:05:00,383 --> 00:05:02,135
Um... Forty, tops.
81
00:05:02,135 --> 00:05:04,054
Plus, Kittriss
is a little hottie,
82
00:05:04,054 --> 00:05:05,972
so I gotta step up my game.

00:05:09,350 --> 00:05:11,477
Yeah, I... I guess.

seeing you here.

doing some research.

00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:26,618

Yep.

- but small teeth?
- Homo Habilis.
96
00:05:39,965 --> 00:05:42,342
- Well done.
- Wait.
97
00:05:42,342 --> 00:05:44,636
You teach
comparative religion.
98
00:05:44,636 --> 00:05:46,972
There's more
to human history
than religion, Tara.
99
00:05:46,972 --> 00:05:48,264
For sure, yeah.
100
00:05:48,515 --> 00:05:51,267
We were just going
to go grab coffee.
Do you want to join?
101
00:05:51,267 --> 00:05:53,353
I'm gonna grab a bite
with Professor Kittriss
102
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:55,355
when she finishes.
But thank you.
103
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:57,107
You like these Cro-Magnons?
104
00:05:57,566 --> 00:06:00,401
Well, they're more
of a mash-up
of various early humans,
105
00:06:00,401 --> 00:06:03,113
but I like
the cave paintings.
106

to borrow some books.

Come by any time,
take whatever you want.

I probably won't.

about this stuff
than the museum people.
- They're called curators.

he's a very brilliant man.

went to college
to expand their minds?

way to Silicon Valley.

Let's go.
174
00:10:05,689 --> 00:10:07,190
Let's go.
You ready?
175
00:10:08,024 --> 00:10:09,317
I'll take it easy on you.
Eh?
176
00:10:10,235 --> 00:10:11,695
So I get into position.
177
00:10:11,695 --> 00:10:14,197
First thing I do is I lead
with a head kick.
178
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:17,576
Then I follow up
with two punches.

Seriously, man,
why do I even bother,
really?

Oh...
My fault, man. I...

One.

00:11:00,952 --> 00:11:03,705
- Boom! You see how fast...?
- That's...
195
00:11:03,705 --> 00:11:06,499
amazing.
I can't even see you.
You're so fast.

- You're like the Flash.
- Yeah?

198
00:11:36,321 --> 00:11:38,364
Have a great class,

199
00:11:38,364 --> 00:11:39,533
You too, babe.
200
00:11:44,621 --> 00:11:46,748
We're all burning.
201
00:11:46,748 --> 00:11:50,586
Every one of us.
Burning with desire.
202
00:11:50,586 --> 00:11:52,337
We're burning
with a fire caused
203
00:11:52,337 --> 00:11:54,506
by what the Buddha called
204
00:11:54,506 --> 00:11:59,219
"the three poisons."
Greed, anger, ignorance.
205
00:11:59,636 --> 00:12:01,179
Except he taught us
206
00:12:01,179 --> 00:12:04,808
that we can fix this.
We can turn them around.
207
00:12:05,183 --> 00:12:08,061
And greed
becomes generosity.
208
00:12:11,231 --> 00:12:13,316
Anger becomes compassion.
209
00:12:16,236 --> 00:12:19,155
And ignorance
becomes wisdom.
210
00:12:23,368 --> 00:12:27,372
There are miracles around us
all the time, he said.
211
00:12:27,372 --> 00:12:30,542
The fact that we are here,
together, in this room...
212
00:12:30,542 --> 00:12:31,793
is a miracle.
213
00:12:33,044 --> 00:12:36,256
- JOHN:
Yeah?
- Isn't the Buddha
kind of a hypocrite?
214
00:12:36,256 --> 00:12:38,424
I mean, sure,
he gave up
all worldly goods,
215
00:12:38,424 --> 00:12:40,135
his father's money,
216
00:12:40,135 --> 00:12:42,846
told us all to live
a life of restraint...
217
00:12:42,846 --> 00:12:45,015
and then he ended up,
like, super fat.
218
00:12:45,015 --> 00:12:47,893
- (LAUGHTER)
- Like crazy fat, like,
come on, dude.
219
00:12:48,309 --> 00:12:51,146
You're talking about
those statues you see
in Chinatown, right?
220
00:12:51,146 --> 00:12:52,480
- Yeah.
- The Buddha
221
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,608
depicted in those statues
he's Asian, right?
222
00:12:54,608 --> 00:12:55,483
Right.
223
00:12:55,483 --> 00:12:56,693
So...
224
00:12:56,693 --> 00:12:57,903
It's not the Buddha.
225
00:12:57,903 --> 00:12:59,112
Boom.
226
00:12:59,112 --> 00:13:01,740
- What-what do you mean?
- Well, think about it.
227
00:13:01,740 --> 00:13:05,536
Siddhartha Gautama
was an Indian.
From Nepal.
228
00:13:05,536 --> 00:13:08,496
A Chinese monk
came to India,
229
00:13:08,496 --> 00:13:10,206
became a Buddhist, went home
230
00:13:10,206 --> 00:13:12,000
and started spreading
the religion.
231
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,919
The Chinese mixed in Taoism.
232
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:17,463
Their monks introduced
the head shaving,
the robes...
233
00:13:17,463 --> 00:13:21,927
the fat, happy Buddha
named Hotei.
234
00:13:22,427 --> 00:13:24,345
The actual Buddha
was a regular man,
235
00:13:24,345 --> 00:13:26,014
with a normal body
and a full head of hair.
236
00:13:26,014 --> 00:13:27,307
But he was a god.
237
00:13:27,307 --> 00:13:30,644
No, never claimed to be.
238
00:13:30,644 --> 00:13:31,853
Just a man
239
00:13:31,853 --> 00:13:34,189
who thought long and hard
about the human condition
240
00:13:34,189 --> 00:13:35,566
and achieved enlightenment.
241
00:13:35,566 --> 00:13:36,817
Like Jesus.
242
00:13:36,817 --> 00:13:40,403
Only without
the long blond hair
and blue eyes.
243
00:13:40,403 --> 00:13:41,404
(LAUGHS)
244
00:13:41,404 --> 00:13:43,406
Uh, but Jesus
wasn't just a man.
245
00:13:43,406 --> 00:13:44,658
No?
246
00:13:44,658 --> 00:13:46,492
He claimed to be
the son of God.
247
00:13:46,492 --> 00:13:48,704
He died,
and was resurrected.
248
00:13:48,704 --> 00:13:50,622
So we know he was divine.
249
00:13:51,497 --> 00:13:53,917
You know, or you have faith?
250
00:13:53,917 --> 00:13:56,419
You can only know
what you can prove.
251
00:13:56,419 --> 00:13:59,047
God is beyond proof,
logic or reason.
252
00:13:59,590 --> 00:14:04,928
You can believe in God
or Jesus through faith...
253
00:14:04,928 --> 00:14:07,180
but that's different
from knowing.
254
00:14:07,681 --> 00:14:09,015
I know that Jesus existed;
255
00:14:09,015 --> 00:14:11,392
there's historical evidence
of that. And, uh...
256
00:14:12,102 --> 00:14:13,895
I have faith
that he was divine.
257
00:14:13,895 --> 00:14:15,897
Aquinas said
faith is a divine act
258
00:14:15,897 --> 00:14:17,315
supernaturally bestowed.
259
00:14:17,315 --> 00:14:19,067
"Ask and ye shall receive."
260
00:14:19,067 --> 00:14:23,154
Kierkegaard, on the other hand,
said that we
must leap to faith.
261
00:14:23,154 --> 00:14:27,158
It's an act
you must choose to perform.
262
00:14:27,158 --> 00:14:29,119
Kierkegaard
was more demanding.
263
00:14:29,119 --> 00:14:30,954
Okay, he was sick of people
sitting around talking
264
00:14:30,954 --> 00:14:33,540
about religion all day and
not doing anything about it.
265
00:14:33,832 --> 00:14:35,751
I hope he didn't mean
this class, though.
266
00:14:35,751 --> 00:14:36,960
- (LAUGHTER)
- JOHN:
But, uh,
267
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,129
weren't we supposed
to be talking about Buddha?
268
00:14:39,129 --> 00:14:41,840
They had a lot in common,
Jesus and Buddha.
269
00:14:42,132 --> 00:14:43,509
How so?
270
00:14:43,509 --> 00:14:47,679
Well...
there's a lot of overlap
in their philosophies.
271
00:14:47,679 --> 00:14:49,097
They both taught
272
00:14:49,097 --> 00:14:51,057
that golden rule
that we should be charitable
273
00:14:51,057 --> 00:14:52,518
and not judge others.
274
00:14:52,518 --> 00:14:54,435
But the Buddha said
you shouldn't believe
275
00:14:54,435 --> 00:14:56,813
in something just 'cause
it's written in scripture.
276
00:14:56,813 --> 00:14:59,274
The whole premise with Jesus
is to accept on faith.
277
00:14:59,274 --> 00:15:00,817
That's
a pretty huge difference.
278
00:15:00,817 --> 00:15:03,945
Also the purpose
of suffering.
Jesus suffered for us.
279
00:15:03,945 --> 00:15:06,489
While the Buddha's
whole thing
was to eliminate suffering.
280
00:15:06,489 --> 00:15:07,866
Eliminate desire.
281
00:15:07,866 --> 00:15:09,492
Which is what
causes suffering.
282
00:15:09,492 --> 00:15:11,369
I know. I listen.
I was listening.
283
00:15:11,369 --> 00:15:12,996
(LAUGHTER)
284
00:15:12,996 --> 00:15:17,250
Okay. Next time,
we will cover
the path to Nirvana...
285
00:15:17,250 --> 00:15:20,461
and we will wrap
this semester up
with Jainism.
286
00:15:20,461 --> 00:15:22,673
It's like Buddhism,
but less fun.
287
00:15:22,673 --> 00:15:24,883
Jain women have to be reborn
as men
288
00:15:24,883 --> 00:15:26,259
to achieve enlightenment.
289
00:15:26,259 --> 00:15:27,468
Ugh.
290
00:15:27,468 --> 00:15:29,262
We all know it should be
the other way around.
291
00:15:29,262 --> 00:15:30,681
- (MILD LAUGHTER)
- Thank you.
292
00:15:31,389 --> 00:15:32,933
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
293
00:15:34,434 --> 00:15:37,478
- Great lecture.
- You never use
any notes or anything.
294
00:15:37,478 --> 00:15:39,480
You just, like,
know all this stuff.
295
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,567
I've been at it
a very, very long time.
296
00:15:41,567 --> 00:15:43,819
So, in honor of wrapping up
the unit,
297
00:15:43,819 --> 00:15:46,112
we're having a Buddhist
vegetarian dinner.
298
00:15:46,112 --> 00:15:48,615
- Think you could come?
- Um... Thank you,
but I don't think so.
299
00:15:48,615 --> 00:15:49,825
Busy?
300
00:15:49,825 --> 00:15:51,702
I appreciate the invitation.
301
00:15:52,202 --> 00:15:55,330
Oh, and for what it's worth,
the Buddha ate meat.
302
00:15:55,914 --> 00:15:57,666
He never said
you had to be a vegetarian.
303
00:15:57,666 --> 00:15:59,626
He just didn't like
to see animals killed.
304
00:15:59,626 --> 00:16:02,128
Well, who does?
But you know, bacon.
305
00:16:02,128 --> 00:16:03,922
Bacon donuts.
Best invention ever.
306
00:16:03,922 --> 00:16:05,591
- Mm-hmm.
(CHUCKLES)
- Bye.
307
00:16:08,885 --> 00:16:10,095
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
308
00:16:10,095 --> 00:16:12,180
- I have not seen it.
- Oh, you haven't seen it?
- No.
309
00:16:12,180 --> 00:16:13,807
- Everybody's seen it.
- I am not... No.
310
00:16:13,807 --> 00:16:16,059
- (CHUCKLES)
All right, so...
- So, is he coming?
311
00:16:16,059 --> 00:16:17,894
Uh, Isabel can work on him.
Right?
312
00:16:17,894 --> 00:16:19,437
I can try.
313
00:16:19,437 --> 00:16:22,065
I can't believe
his class is almost over.
314
00:16:22,065 --> 00:16:23,650
- I know.
- Hm?
315
00:16:25,401 --> 00:16:28,446
You know,
and next semester,
he's teaching
316
00:16:28,446 --> 00:16:31,366
lame Abrahamic and
Zoroastrian religions
again.
317
00:16:31,366 --> 00:16:33,451
There's nothing lame
about Abrahamic religions.
318
00:16:33,451 --> 00:16:35,203
- Well, you know what I mean.
It's just that...
- He needs some new classes.
319
00:16:35,203 --> 00:16:36,788
He should do Hellenistic.
320
00:16:36,788 --> 00:16:39,875
Uh, yeah, Zeus and Herakles
and what-not.
That'd be cool.
321
00:16:39,875 --> 00:16:41,209
Yeah,
the only problem is he...
322
00:16:41,209 --> 00:16:43,044
he only does real religions,
Liko.
323
00:16:43,044 --> 00:16:46,464
Huh! You don't think
the Greeks and Romans
were on to anything?
324
00:16:46,464 --> 00:16:49,384
Christians got half of
their stuff from the Pagans.
325
00:16:49,384 --> 00:16:51,845
Or do you need to take
World of the Early Church
again?
326
00:16:51,845 --> 00:16:54,472
Guys, we need to focus
on what's important.
327
00:16:54,472 --> 00:16:56,767
Getting Professor Young
to come to dinner.
328
00:16:56,767 --> 00:17:00,145
There's just so much in that
guy's head I want to get at.
329
00:17:00,145 --> 00:17:01,479
Me, too.
330
00:17:01,479 --> 00:17:03,273
And... Well,
how do we get him to come?
331
00:17:03,273 --> 00:17:05,692
I think Tara
probably has a few ideas.
332
00:17:05,692 --> 00:17:08,654
- Don't be gross, Liko.
- Leave her alone, man.
333
00:17:08,654 --> 00:17:10,280
You going to
that Delta Psi party?
334
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:11,948
Ugh.
Those guys are animals.
335
00:17:11,948 --> 00:17:14,325
Yeah.
(LOUDLY) Party animals.
336
00:17:14,325 --> 00:17:16,244
(CHUCKLING)
Liko, what're you, five?
337
00:17:16,244 --> 00:17:19,998
Um, no, I do not need
to get drunk
on a Wednesday night.
338
00:17:19,998 --> 00:17:22,668
Thank you.
With a bunch of boys.
339
00:17:22,668 --> 00:17:26,254
Your loss. I'm going.
Saint Philip?
340
00:17:26,254 --> 00:17:29,966
Uh, well, Saint Philip
has Bible study
on Wednesdays.
341
00:17:29,966 --> 00:17:32,093
You have no short-term
memory, do you?
342
00:17:32,093 --> 00:17:34,429
I don't know.
What was the question?
343
00:17:34,429 --> 00:17:35,639

John, I'm glad I caught you.
345
00:17:39,976 --> 00:17:41,520
Dr. Parker.
Did we have an appointment?
346
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:42,938
I got to share this
with somebody,
347
00:17:42,938 --> 00:17:45,607
and you're the only one
I know
that can appreciate it.
348
00:17:45,607 --> 00:17:47,984
I got this at a garage sale
last weekend.
349
00:17:47,984 --> 00:17:51,530
It's a 75 year old bottle
of single-malt scotch.
350
00:17:51,530 --> 00:17:52,823
Wow!
351
00:17:52,823 --> 00:17:55,784
I paid entirely too much
for it,
but the story...
352
00:17:55,784 --> 00:17:57,368
This woman's husband
brings it back
353
00:17:57,368 --> 00:17:59,162
from Scotland
in the sixties,
354
00:17:59,162 --> 00:18:01,414
and they've been saving it
for a special occasion.
355
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:03,792
And saving it,
and saving it...
356
00:18:03,792 --> 00:18:05,544
And the special occasion
never came.
357
00:18:05,544 --> 00:18:07,504
- And he died a
couple of months ago.
- Ooh.
358
00:18:07,504 --> 00:18:09,965
Now she's selling his stuff
and moving to Costa Rica.
359
00:18:09,965 --> 00:18:12,217
- Naturally.
- But here's the kicker:
360
00:18:12,217 --> 00:18:15,178
we get home and we get a
message from Kitty and Ron.
361
00:18:15,470 --> 00:18:16,888
The baby came.
362
00:18:16,888 --> 00:18:18,389

tasted anything
quite like that.

You're not gonna call
an old man "old man".

You're call
a young guy that.

It's "Oldman".

than...

buying a motorcycle and...
532
00:27:21,767 --> 00:27:24,144
taking off with some student.
Right?
533
00:27:24,561 --> 00:27:25,979

and get back

For ten years, this guy,
Arthur M. Jenkins...
557
00:29:38,153 --> 00:29:40,155
Taught at

558
00:29:40,155 --> 00:29:43,366
alongside
a history professor named
John Oldman.

Then one night,
this Oldman guy
gathers his professor friends

and tells them that he's
really 14,000 years old.
561
00:29:50,624 --> 00:29:53,710
He was born a caveman,
somehow became immortal.
He knew

Columbus, Vincent Van Gogh,
all this crazy stuff.
563
00:29:56,379 --> 00:29:58,131

You can't just...
580
00:30:36,211 --> 00:30:37,838
It's science fiction,
all right?
581
00:30:37,838 --> 00:30:40,591

speculative fiction
about Jesus all the time.
582

You should see what they
write about Kirk and Spock.
583
00:30:43,218 --> 00:30:44,553
Better yet, you shouldn't.
584
00:30:44,553 --> 00:30:46,597
But he said
that it's a true story.
585
00:30:46,597 --> 00:30:48,932
See? Says right there,
"non-fiction".
586
00:30:48,932 --> 00:30:50,892
Oh, well,
then it must be true.
587
00:30:51,476 --> 00:30:53,520
There are plenty
of alien abduction books
588
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:54,980
in the non-fiction section.
589
00:30:54,980 --> 00:30:56,565
Look, I checked up
on Arthur Jenkins.
Okay?
590
00:30:56,565 --> 00:30:59,484
He was a tenured
archeology professor,
591
00:30:59,484 --> 00:31:02,195
published a pile of books.
The real deal.
592
00:31:02,195 --> 00:31:04,114
And then this one came out...
593
00:31:04,114 --> 00:31:06,116
and he got laughed off
the planet.
594
00:31:06,116 --> 00:31:07,576
No wonder.
595
00:31:07,576 --> 00:31:09,953
Okay,
but he did his research.
596
00:31:09,953 --> 00:31:11,788
Found out that
the John Oldman he knew
597
00:31:11,788 --> 00:31:13,790
didn't exist until 2001.
598
00:31:13,790 --> 00:31:15,416
No mention of him anywhere.

Everything turned
out to be fake.
601
00:31:20,714 --> 00:31:22,257
Jenkins even
tracked down two previous
602
00:31:22,257 --> 00:31:25,176
colleges where he'd taught
under different names.
603
00:31:25,176 --> 00:31:27,846

and John Permian.

Mm, yeah.
610
00:31:38,565 --> 00:31:40,567
They both also had
fake references,
611
00:31:40,567 --> 00:31:43,194
and left abruptly
after about ten years.
612
00:31:43,779 --> 00:31:45,822
And their descriptions,
613
00:31:45,822 --> 00:31:47,824
John Oldman, John Magdel,
614
00:31:47,824 --> 00:31:50,827
John Permian,
are virtually identical.
615
00:31:51,327 --> 00:31:53,121
Okay, Oldman's DMV records
616
00:31:53,121 --> 00:31:56,291
somehow vanished
two days after he did.
617
00:31:56,291 --> 00:31:59,586
I mean,
Google him now, the
only reference is this book.
618
00:31:59,836 --> 00:32:02,005
If this Oldman guy is real,
619
00:32:02,005 --> 00:32:03,757
he makes his past disappear
620
00:32:03,757 --> 00:32:06,384
every time
he changes identity.
621
00:32:07,427 --> 00:32:08,637

you really believe.

I know it's more
I than 6,000 years old.
629
00:32:27,989 --> 00:32:30,283
But I believe that
a man named Jesus
630
00:32:30,283 --> 00:32:31,827
lived and died for our sins.
631
00:32:32,327 --> 00:32:33,787
Um, Philip.
632
00:32:33,787 --> 00:32:35,872
You know there are
millions and millions
633
00:32:35,872 --> 00:32:39,334
of people who don't believe
in Jesus Christ's divinity.
634
00:32:39,334 --> 00:32:43,129
I mean, Jews, Hindus,
Wiccans, plenty more.
635
00:32:43,630 --> 00:32:45,048
Wiccans...
636
00:32:45,048 --> 00:32:48,635
Um... Yes, but that doesn't
mean they're right.
637
00:32:49,177 --> 00:32:51,722
Some people believe
the Galactic Dictator Xenu
638
00:32:51,722 --> 00:32:54,891
brought his people to earth
and hid them in volcanoes,
so...
639
00:32:55,183 --> 00:32:58,812
The point is, Jenkins' book
is just a story.
640
00:32:59,229 --> 00:33:02,023
Now, if I could allow
my faith to be shaken by the
641
00:33:02,023 --> 00:33:04,651
fantasies of a disgruntled
college professor...
642
00:33:04,651 --> 00:33:06,528
then I'm not much
of a Christian, am I?
643
00:33:06,528 --> 00:33:07,946
So...
644
00:33:07,946 --> 00:33:10,616
Jenkins writes a book about
John Oldman. Fine, whatever.
645
00:33:10,616 --> 00:33:12,826

with any of us?

00:33:12,826 --> 00:33:14,035

at Professor Young's.

00:33:23,294 --> 00:33:26,089
"To my dear friend
John Oldman."
650
00:33:26,089 --> 00:33:27,257
Right?
651
00:33:27,257 --> 00:33:28,800
So...
652
00:33:29,217 --> 00:33:32,012

and John Oldman
knew each other?
653
00:33:32,012 --> 00:33:33,263
Yeah.
654
00:33:34,848 --> 00:33:36,558
Okay.
655
00:33:36,558 --> 00:33:41,605
What if Professor Young
actually is John Oldman.
656
00:33:43,356 --> 00:33:47,193
Well,
how do you make that leap?
Are there any pictures?
657
00:33:47,485 --> 00:33:50,405
Okay, well, Jenkins talks
about several times when
658
00:33:50,405 --> 00:33:53,366
Oldman conspicuously avoided
having his picture taken.
659
00:33:53,366 --> 00:33:55,619
Turning around,
stepping behind someone,

that no one
ever heard ringing.
661
00:33:57,621 --> 00:33:59,998
Whatever, just to avoid
being photographed.
662
00:34:00,456 --> 00:34:01,958
To Jenkins' knowledge,
the only
663
00:34:01,958 --> 00:34:04,252
existing picture
of John Oldman...
664
00:34:04,252 --> 00:34:08,214

Mm.
667

Wait, so, if...
668
00:34:22,854 --> 00:34:25,607
Professor Young
is Jesus Christ returned,
669
00:34:25,607 --> 00:34:28,234
then that means we're in...

671
00:34:30,571 --> 00:34:33,114
But if Jesus never left,
672
00:34:33,114 --> 00:34:36,409
then he's not "returned."
He's just...
673
00:34:36,409 --> 00:34:37,786

864
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:10,826
I tried to see
what else I could find
before calling you,
865
00:49:11,117 --> 00:49:12,994
and there was nothing.
866
00:49:12,994 --> 00:49:15,163
He just disappeared.
867
00:49:15,163 --> 00:49:16,915
Yes, he does that.

Well, thank you so much,
Ms. Collsen.

This is your number
if I have any more questions?
870
00:49:21,127 --> 00:49:24,255
- Yes, yes.
- Great. Thank you so much.

- Goodbye.

You've been trying
to reach me.

00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:58,540
I have, yes.
885
00:49:58,540 --> 00:49:59,916
Get me a picture.
886
00:49:59,916 --> 00:50:01,417
A new, clean picture.
887
00:50:01,417 --> 00:50:03,670
Email it
or text it to this number.

00:50:03,670 --> 00:50:06,089
- I emailed that one...
- No, no, no.

Hey, Professor.
We know we're early, but...
896
00:50:33,366 --> 00:50:36,369
It's the last class,
and we don't have you
next semester.
897
00:50:36,369 --> 00:50:39,247
So we thought we'd have
a little goodbye party.

I knew it.
912
00:51:22,874 --> 00:51:25,502
He did it on purpose.
I'm sure of it, man.
913
00:51:25,502 --> 00:51:27,921
He didn't want
his picture taken, so he
messed up both shots.
914
00:51:27,921 --> 00:51:30,006
I guess after
14,000 years,
915
00:51:30,006 --> 00:51:31,842
you learn a thing or two
about hiding.
916
00:51:31,842 --> 00:51:34,052
Yeah, but these days,
there's cameras everywhere.
917
00:51:34,385 --> 00:51:36,429
He won't be able
to hide anymore.
918
00:51:36,429 --> 00:51:38,599
Whatever he's been doing
all these years,
919

I mean, it's over.
920

Time's up.
Don't you see?
921
00:51:43,144 --> 00:51:44,855
What do you suggest?
922
00:51:45,647 --> 00:51:49,484
Maybe we just talk to him.
Tell him the truth.
923
00:51:49,484 --> 00:51:52,654
- What truth?
- That we know who he is.
924
00:51:52,904 --> 00:51:54,781
Based on a
discredited book
925
00:51:54,781 --> 00:51:57,492
by a lonely old crank
and some
circumstantial evidence?
926
00:51:57,492 --> 00:52:00,161
We are not
crazy people.
927
00:52:00,161 --> 00:52:03,665
There is something special
about John.
928
00:52:03,665 --> 00:52:07,586
We all knew it the first time
we heard him speak. Right?
929
00:52:09,337 --> 00:52:12,758
All throughout history,
there have been prophets,
930
00:52:12,758 --> 00:52:16,386
visionaries.
Men and women touched by God.
931
00:52:16,386 --> 00:52:19,890
I mean, who's to say
John Young
isn't one of these people?
932
00:52:19,890 --> 00:52:22,058
Why is that so impossible?
933
00:52:22,058 --> 00:52:24,435
- Well, it sure isn't likely.
- Philip,
934
00:52:24,978 --> 00:52:28,774
I'm not saying that
he's the "son of God".
935
00:52:28,774 --> 00:52:30,984
But if he is
14,000 years old,
936
00:52:30,984 --> 00:52:33,194
then he's the wisest man
in the world.
937
00:52:33,194 --> 00:52:34,696
In history.
938
00:52:34,696 --> 00:52:37,032
He should be listened to.
Followed.

Is that what you're gonna say?

No.

a whole new...

the beans a little bit.

does it matter?
If he knows that we know...
1045
00:59:36,409 --> 00:59:37,994
Then he'll disappear
for good!

on his way down here.
He's on the road right now.

slip away quietly, huh?

got by me somehow.

I told you from the start
1072
01:01:00,869 --> 01:01:02,704
that I would eventually
move on.
1073

"I'm never getting married",
"I don't want kids".

01:08:15,846 --> 01:08:17,013
Okay, just...
1197
01:08:17,013 --> 01:08:19,140
You guys go.
Ambulance is on the way, okay?
1198
01:08:19,140 --> 01:08:20,475
And take the idiot with you.
1199
01:08:20,475 --> 01:08:22,393
Are you sure?
1200
01:08:22,393 --> 01:08:24,771
- Yeah, I got it.
- Oh, my God.
1201
01:08:24,771 --> 01:08:28,817
What's gonna happen
when he wakes up?
He's gonna be so pissed.
1202
01:08:28,817 --> 01:08:30,777
Well, he forgave Judas.
1203
01:08:32,613 --> 01:08:33,822
Let's go.

Philip.
1207
01:09:34,883 --> 01:09:36,802
You need to release me.

01:09:39,054 --> 01:09:40,847
Philip.
1209
01:09:40,847 --> 01:09:42,974
What am I doing here?
1210
01:09:44,810 --> 01:09:47,478
You've kidnapped me.
Do you realize that?
1211
01:09:49,731 --> 01:09:51,567
We just
wanted you to stay.
1212
01:09:51,817 --> 01:09:53,819
I wanted to go.
1213
01:09:53,819 --> 01:09:56,237
So you knocked me out
and tied me to a chair.
1214
01:09:56,237 --> 01:09:57,573
No, um...
1215
01:09:57,573 --> 01:09:59,658
Cut me loose.
1216
01:09:59,658 --> 01:10:02,703
I'll leave.
You'll never hear
from me again.
1217
01:10:03,328 --> 01:10:04,580
I'm sorry.
1218
01:10:06,707 --> 01:10:08,917
- I can't.
- Yes, you can.
1219
01:10:09,167 --> 01:10:11,962
Just cut the tape
and walk away.
1220
01:10:13,213 --> 01:10:15,924
Do you want
something to drink?
1221

No.
1222
01:10:20,053 --> 01:10:21,513
Why are you doing this?
1223
01:10:23,389 --> 01:10:24,683
Philip!
1224
01:10:27,894 --> 01:10:29,479
I want to know the truth.
1225
01:10:30,188 --> 01:10:31,857
You want to know the truth.
1226
01:10:34,526 --> 01:10:35,861
Where are the others?
1227
01:10:35,861 --> 01:10:37,863
They'll be back soon.
1228
01:10:39,531 --> 01:10:44,452
So is there a plan,
or are you guys
just winging it?
1229
01:10:44,452 --> 01:10:48,414
I mean, am I going
to be tortured
for information? I don't
1230
01:10:48,414 --> 01:10:52,043
know where the bomb is hidden,

and Art wants
to talk to me.
1239
01:11:09,978 --> 01:11:13,231
I'm concerned for your safety.
You need to cut me loose.
1240
01:11:19,237 --> 01:11:21,156
Where do you worship,
Philip?
1241
01:11:22,282 --> 01:11:24,993
I mean, I'm assuming
that you worship somewhere
because you seem...
1242
01:11:24,993 --> 01:11:27,954
Will you please
just stop talking?
Please.
1243
01:11:29,039 --> 01:11:31,291
Wouldn't sitting here
in silence be much worse?

I'm just trying to think.

- Okay.

It's the

01:11:53,897 --> 01:11:58,777
I've heard of it.
You live locally
with your mother, right?
1248
01:12:00,612 --> 01:12:03,031
She attends as well?
1249
01:12:03,031 --> 01:12:04,240
Yeah.
1250
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:07,327
She know
where you are right now?
1251
01:12:09,370 --> 01:12:11,331
She's at a retreat.
1252
01:12:11,331 --> 01:12:12,749
What kind?
1253
01:12:12,749 --> 01:12:15,335

It's about...
1254
01:12:17,212 --> 01:12:19,130
preparing for the future.

Protecting the church.
1256
01:12:22,467 --> 01:12:26,221
So she's very involved.
Both of you are.
1257
01:12:26,221 --> 01:12:30,225
Yeah, it's her mostly,
because I'm busy with school.
1258
01:12:30,601 --> 01:12:33,144
You'll be more involved
after you graduate, right?
1259
01:12:34,730 --> 01:12:37,065
- These...
- I have questions, okay?
1260
01:12:37,816 --> 01:12:40,318
I have some questions.
Will you answer them?
1261
01:12:40,318 --> 01:12:42,195
To the best of my ability.
1262
01:12:44,531 --> 01:12:47,450
- I want to...
- You want to talk about Jesus.
1263
01:12:52,038 --> 01:12:53,331
Okay.
1264
01:12:56,084 --> 01:13:00,338
You believe the Bible
as the word of God, right?
1265
01:13:00,672 --> 01:13:02,007
Absolutely.
1266
01:13:02,423 --> 01:13:04,300
How did you come
to that belief?
1267
01:13:07,763 --> 01:13:10,891
Um...
Growing up, my dad drank.

(SNIFFLES)
And he hit my mother,
so we got out of there.
1269
01:13:16,897 --> 01:13:19,733
Some people
took us in and they, uh...
1270
01:13:19,733 --> 01:13:24,029
They brought us to the church,
and it saved us, really.
1271
01:13:27,490 --> 01:13:31,452
We were baptized.
Born again.
1272
01:13:32,829 --> 01:13:37,167
And you now have
a personal relationship with
Jesus Christ as your savior?
1273
01:13:37,167 --> 01:13:38,794
Yes, sir, I do.
1274
01:13:40,086 --> 01:13:42,297
What would he
want you to do now?
1275
01:13:44,132 --> 01:13:47,218
I don't know.
Why don't you tell me?
1276
01:13:49,596 --> 01:13:51,723
Who exactly
do you think I am?
1277
01:13:51,973 --> 01:13:53,975
I don't know.
1278
01:13:53,975 --> 01:13:57,521
I don't know. You're certainly
the best professor
that I've ever had.
1279
01:13:58,354 --> 01:14:00,774
And you know more
about the Bible
than even Pastor Michaels,
1280
01:14:00,774 --> 01:14:02,984
plus
every other religion besides.
1281
01:14:04,485 --> 01:14:06,572
Most of my teachers,
they don't...
1282
01:14:07,531 --> 01:14:08,990
they won't...
1283
01:14:09,365 --> 01:14:12,744
acknowledge
the central truth of scripture.
They...
1284
01:14:12,744 --> 01:14:17,708
believe that faith and science
can't co-exist
and that's just not true.
1285
01:14:18,750 --> 01:14:20,752
That's not how you teach it.
1286
01:14:21,670 --> 01:14:25,632
That just means
I'm a decent teacher.
Right?
1287
01:14:27,634 --> 01:14:32,097
I met Isabel freshman year.
It was in your Intro class.
1288
01:14:33,849 --> 01:14:37,644
She was the first one of us
to realize
there's just something...
1289
01:14:37,644 --> 01:14:40,522
different about you and...
1290
01:14:41,773 --> 01:14:43,274
The way you spoke.
1291
01:14:46,945 --> 01:14:50,073
I mean, you saved
that janitor's life.
1292
01:14:50,073 --> 01:14:52,158
That was just CPR,
you could do it.
1293
01:14:52,492 --> 01:14:54,452
You talked that girl
out of suicide.
1294
01:14:54,452 --> 01:14:56,747
She just needed someone
to hear her.
1295
01:14:56,747 --> 01:14:59,750
Yeah, but there's all the other
weird stuff, too.
You know, like...
1296
01:14:59,750 --> 01:15:01,835
how there's no pictures
of you anywhere.
1297
01:15:01,835 --> 01:15:04,420
There's no record of you online
before you started teaching
at the school.
1298
01:15:04,420 --> 01:15:08,216
I've got my own reasons
for wanting to be
very private these days.
1299
01:15:09,300 --> 01:15:10,511
That's all.
1300
01:15:13,471 --> 01:15:15,641
I mean, on one hand...
1301
01:15:15,641 --> 01:15:20,311
what if God really did send
His Son to Earth
to spread His word.
1302
01:15:21,479 --> 01:15:23,815
Maybe you're exactly
how He'd do it, right?
1303
01:15:23,815 --> 01:15:26,902
Allow a man to live
for thousands and thousands
of years,
1304
01:15:26,902 --> 01:15:28,612
traveling the world,
collecting
1305
01:15:28,612 --> 01:15:32,783
all of this knowledge
and wisdom,
and once he's finally got it...
1306
01:15:32,783 --> 01:15:34,576
he starts preaching.
1307
01:15:35,451 --> 01:15:39,623
What he's saying
is the truth, so people
grasp it right away.
1308
01:15:39,623 --> 01:15:42,876
It's like Christianity.
It took over the world in just
a couple of hundred years.
1309
01:15:42,876 --> 01:15:44,085
Yes, it did.
1310
01:15:48,256 --> 01:15:49,925
It makes a certain
kind of sense.
1311
01:15:49,925 --> 01:15:51,593
And you want to believe
that story.
1312
01:15:54,763 --> 01:15:56,890
I'm not sure.
Because...
1313
01:15:57,558 --> 01:16:00,686
if you are Jesus, then...
1314
01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:03,772
that means
that the Bible is just...
1315
01:16:06,316 --> 01:16:07,776
fiction.
1316
01:16:08,944 --> 01:16:10,445
I need...
1317
01:16:10,445 --> 01:16:13,364
I want to know the truth.
I need to know the truth.
Can you...
1318
01:16:14,115 --> 01:16:16,076
just tell me the truth,
please?
1319
01:16:16,492 --> 01:16:19,162
If I tell you the truth,
Philip, will you let me go?
1320
01:16:20,872 --> 01:16:22,332
Yeah, I guess so.
1321
01:16:22,916 --> 01:16:26,127
- Okay, I want you to listen
very carefully.
- Okay, just wait a second...
1322
01:16:26,127 --> 01:16:31,216
Two thousand years ago,
I stood on a hill in Galilee
1323
01:16:31,216 --> 01:16:32,634
and I spoke
1324
01:16:32,634 --> 01:16:36,638
some basic spiritual truths
I'd picked up over the years.
1325
01:16:37,263 --> 01:16:40,809
And when the gospels
were written,
they called me Christ.
1326
01:16:40,809 --> 01:16:43,144
But frankly, the whole thing
got a lot bigger
1327
01:16:43,144 --> 01:16:46,231
and went
in a very different direction
than I ever intended.
1328
01:16:46,898 --> 01:16:51,444
It got violent
and scary and I took off.
1329
01:16:51,653 --> 01:16:53,697
I've kept my head down
ever since.
1330
01:16:54,906 --> 01:16:59,410
And I have to move on
far more often
than I would like.
1331
01:16:59,410 --> 01:17:00,662
(ETHEREAL MUSIC PLAYING)
1332
01:17:00,662 --> 01:17:02,956
But lately something's changed.
1333
01:17:03,749 --> 01:17:08,378
I'm getting lines in my face,
gray hair. I don't heal
as fast as I used to.
1334
01:17:08,378 --> 01:17:10,547
And I don't know
if it's something in the air,
1335
01:17:10,547 --> 01:17:14,718
or in the water, the food.
Something in my blood,
or DNA...
1336
01:17:14,718 --> 01:17:19,055
or a ticking time bomb
in my soul.
I feel different.
1337
01:17:20,974 --> 01:17:22,559
Are you dying?
1338
01:17:23,393 --> 01:17:27,773
I don't know. Maybe.
Maybe I'm just changing.
1339
01:17:28,815 --> 01:17:30,066
Into what?
1340
01:17:32,944 --> 01:17:35,656
If your time is limited,
it's more important
now than ever
1341
01:17:35,656 --> 01:17:37,616
for you to come forward.
1342
01:17:37,616 --> 01:17:41,620
For you to spread
the word as only you can.
1343
01:17:43,705 --> 01:17:47,751
I've thought about it a lot
and I want to help.
1344
01:17:48,794 --> 01:17:52,005
There is so much pain
and suffering.
1345
01:17:54,257 --> 01:17:58,344
The New Testament said that
I would return,
but the truth is I never left.
1346
01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:02,140
The Book of Revelation
says that
1347
01:18:02,140 --> 01:18:06,102
Jesus will rule over this planet
with his believers
for a thousand years.
1348
01:18:06,394 --> 01:18:10,190
Shouldn't there be a better way
to help people than
ruling over them like a king?
1349
01:18:11,858 --> 01:18:15,612
But what about the Rapture,
where the Dead
in Christ will rise?
1350
01:18:15,612 --> 01:18:19,658
Why not bring them
into the light now?
Why condemn them to darkness?
1351
01:18:19,658 --> 01:18:22,327
Because they've condemned
themselves to darkness.
1352
01:18:22,703 --> 01:18:24,329
That's harsh.
1353
01:18:24,329 --> 01:18:28,208
No, it isn't.
That's the fate of those
who haven't been saved.
1354
01:18:28,208 --> 01:18:30,711
As the fate of those who've
abandoned their faith.
1355
01:18:30,711 --> 01:18:33,421
Everyone can be saved.
1356
01:18:33,421 --> 01:18:36,424
Everyone can find
peace and love.
1357
01:18:36,925 --> 01:18:41,722
Why not create
a Heaven on Earth now?
We can help do that.
1358
01:18:42,848 --> 01:18:45,183
But right now...
1359
01:18:45,183 --> 01:18:46,602
I need your help.
1360
01:18:47,519 --> 01:18:48,687
What can I do?
1361
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:51,231
It's time
to cut me loose.
1362
01:18:57,821 --> 01:18:59,239
Yeah, okay.
1363
01:19:14,379 --> 01:19:16,089
Okay, what's your plan?
1364
01:19:16,632 --> 01:19:18,550
One step at a time.
1365
01:19:19,676 --> 01:19:22,679
If you're the Son of God,
why can't you
just cut yourself loose?
1366
01:19:22,679 --> 01:19:23,930
(SCOFFS)
1367
01:19:23,930 --> 01:19:26,224
Son of Man.
No magical powers.
1368
01:19:29,102 --> 01:19:30,937
Okay, you want a plan.
1369
01:19:31,354 --> 01:19:33,356
There are many paths to
enlightenment,
1370
01:19:33,356 --> 01:19:36,359
including
the born-again experience
that you've had.
1371
01:19:36,359 --> 01:19:39,029
But there are
equally valid paths.
1372
01:19:39,029 --> 01:19:40,238
No, there aren't.
1373
01:19:41,031 --> 01:19:44,075
It says in Matthew 18:3...
1374
01:19:44,075 --> 01:19:45,368
Um...
1375
01:19:45,368 --> 01:19:47,203
Jesus tells his disciples:
1376
01:19:47,203 --> 01:19:49,414
"Except ye be converted,
and become as little children,
1377
01:19:49,414 --> 01:19:51,332
ye shall not enter into
the kingdom of Heaven."
1378
01:19:51,332 --> 01:19:53,627
There are other approaches
to enlightenment
that have been practiced
1379
01:19:53,627 --> 01:19:56,672
throughout time
across the globe.
1380
01:19:56,672 --> 01:19:59,340
Why wouldn't we draw
on that experience,
and that wisdom?
1381
01:19:59,340 --> 01:20:02,886
But do these other paths
involve the cleansing blood
of Christ? Because...
1382
01:20:02,886 --> 01:20:05,931
The path is less
important than the goal:
1383
01:20:05,931 --> 01:20:08,809
a personal transformation...
1384
01:20:08,809 --> 01:20:11,269
that enables us
1385
01:20:11,269 --> 01:20:13,689
to empathize with others
and bring
1386
01:20:13,689 --> 01:20:16,357
Heaven here on Earth
right now.
1387
01:20:16,775 --> 01:20:20,821
Rational humans have existed
on this planet
for 200,000 years.
1388
01:20:21,362 --> 01:20:25,659
Right? The New Testament
has only existed for a fraction
of that time, Philip.
1389
01:20:25,659 --> 01:20:29,705
No, no. This is liberal
theological nonsense.
1390
01:20:29,705 --> 01:20:31,414
What,
so you're a Methodist now?
1391
01:20:32,874 --> 01:20:35,001
- I'm not being clear...
- Nah, you know what?
1392
01:20:35,001 --> 01:20:36,628
I've had
a personal relationship
1393
01:20:36,628 --> 01:20:39,506
with Jesus Christ as my savior
for the past ten years now.
1394
01:20:39,506 --> 01:20:41,007
I think I know who Jesus is,
1395
01:20:41,007 --> 01:20:43,844
and I can tell you right now
you don't sound anything
like him.
1396
01:20:43,844 --> 01:20:46,597
I don't know which translation
of the Bible you've read,
1397
01:20:46,597 --> 01:20:49,182
- whose version...
- It's so seductive,
isn't it?
1398
01:20:49,891 --> 01:20:54,020
It's so seductive.
The desire to believe you
is so strong.
1399
01:20:56,565 --> 01:20:58,525
But if word
of your existence got out
1400
01:20:58,525 --> 01:21:02,696
and Isabel had her way and
people started worshipping you,
it could destroy the world.
1401
01:21:02,696 --> 01:21:05,240
I have no intention
of starting a religion.
1402
01:21:09,786 --> 01:21:12,455
You're a real
smooth talker,
Professor Young.
1403
01:21:16,084 --> 01:21:20,046
While you're certainly not
Jesus, you do remind me of
someone else from the Bible.
1404
01:21:20,922 --> 01:21:24,009
Someone
with miraculous powers
of persuasion.
1405
01:21:25,343 --> 01:21:28,096
Someone obsessed
with transforming
the world,
1406
01:21:28,096 --> 01:21:30,599
overturning
the true message
of the Bible.
1407
01:21:32,893 --> 01:21:34,520
You're not Jesus Christ.
1408
01:21:35,896 --> 01:21:37,564
You're the Anti-Christ.
1409
01:21:39,691 --> 01:21:42,485
Cut me loose, Philip,
so we can discuss
this rationally, please.
1410
01:21:42,485 --> 01:21:43,612
(LAUGHS MOCKINGLY)
1411
01:21:43,612 --> 01:21:46,489
Sure, yeah.
Cut loose the Anti-Christ.
1412
01:21:47,365 --> 01:21:49,325
What harm could possibly
come from that?
1413
01:21:49,325 --> 01:21:50,994
Why don't you
listen to yourself?
1414
01:21:51,995 --> 01:21:56,416
A minute earlier,
you're prepared to believe
that I'm Jesus. Now...
1415
01:21:56,416 --> 01:21:57,751
I'm the Anti-Christ.
1416
01:21:58,001 --> 01:21:59,920
I'm not sure who you are.
1417
01:22:01,296 --> 01:22:04,675
Maybe you're just
a regular guy who's
a really good story teller.
1418
01:22:05,258 --> 01:22:07,260
But you're the one who
claimed to be Jesus,
1419
01:22:07,260 --> 01:22:10,055
and right now, you sound more
like the Great Deceiver.
1420
01:22:10,055 --> 01:22:12,516
Do you even know
what the Anti-Christ is?
1421
01:22:13,559 --> 01:22:15,894
The concept
doesn't exist in the Bible.
1422
01:22:16,895 --> 01:22:21,567
It's a distortion
that superstitious monks
created by pulling
1423
01:22:21,567 --> 01:22:24,069
completely unrelated
passages together.
1424
01:22:24,069 --> 01:22:27,030
Now the word "Antichrist"
1425
01:22:27,030 --> 01:22:29,490
appears in the
Epistles of John...
1426
01:22:30,116 --> 01:22:32,452
but it never refers
to a single person.
1427
01:22:32,452 --> 01:22:34,996
You know that I'm talking
about the
really really bad guy
1428
01:22:34,996 --> 01:22:37,999
from the Book of Revelation,
whatever
medieval monks named him.
1429
01:22:37,999 --> 01:22:41,211
Okay.
What malevolent creature
1430
01:22:41,211 --> 01:22:45,006
from the Book of Revelation
do I remotely resemble
to you?
1431
01:22:47,467 --> 01:22:49,344
There's the
seven-headed Beast
1432
01:22:50,804 --> 01:22:52,556
who is wounded to death.
1433
01:22:53,599 --> 01:22:56,518
His wounds miraculously heal.
You can do that.
1434
01:22:58,144 --> 01:23:01,481
The Beast blasphemes God
and Heaven,
1435
01:23:01,481 --> 01:23:04,067
much like your theology
of many paths.
1436
01:23:04,067 --> 01:23:06,361
Ultimately
everyone left on Earth is
1437
01:23:06,361 --> 01:23:10,115
worshiping him.
Seems like you're pushing
for a similar plan.
1438
01:23:10,115 --> 01:23:12,534
All that's missing
is the 666.
1439
01:23:13,952 --> 01:23:15,871
You got any tattoos?
1440
01:23:15,871 --> 01:23:17,080
(SCOFFS)
1441
01:23:17,706 --> 01:23:20,709
The nonsense
about the Beast
1442
01:23:20,709 --> 01:23:23,587
is fantasy literature
and nothing more.
1443
01:23:25,088 --> 01:23:27,758
You really don't believe
in the Bible, do you?
1444
01:23:27,758 --> 01:23:30,468
It's a book,
written by people.
1445
01:23:32,470 --> 01:23:35,932
Whatever you are,
you're a serious enemy
of the Bible,
1446
01:23:35,932 --> 01:23:39,019
and your message could have
catastrophic effects
on the Christian faith.
1447
01:23:39,019 --> 01:23:40,854
You are a threat.
1448
01:23:40,854 --> 01:23:42,564
I just want
to be left alone.
1449
01:23:42,564 --> 01:23:44,440
I don't believe you.
1450
01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:48,945
I haven't lied to you once.
1451
01:23:48,945 --> 01:23:50,822
Hah!
1452
01:23:50,822 --> 01:23:52,282
I have an idea.
1453
01:23:52,533 --> 01:23:54,450
Let's have a little test
of faith.
1454
01:23:55,368 --> 01:23:56,745
For me or for you?
1455
01:23:57,245 --> 01:23:58,664
Both of us.
1456
01:24:00,206 --> 01:24:01,792
I know what I believe in.
1457
01:24:02,834 --> 01:24:06,129
Okay.
So if I am the Beast...
1458
01:24:07,380 --> 01:24:10,425
what do you think God
would have you do with me?
1459
01:24:12,803 --> 01:24:14,262
Probably kill you.
1460
01:24:14,262 --> 01:24:17,516
Then do it.
Let's end this.
1461
01:24:18,183 --> 01:24:20,936
I didn't exactly say
you were the Anti-Christ.
1462
01:24:20,936 --> 01:24:23,605
I just said
it could be a possibility.
1463
01:24:23,605 --> 01:24:25,231
Well, that's good news.
1464
01:24:25,231 --> 01:24:27,233
If you're not going to kill me
for being the Beast,
1465
01:24:27,233 --> 01:24:29,194
you're going to have
to let me go sometime.
1466
01:24:29,194 --> 01:24:31,697
There's still the possibility
that you could be Jesus,
and I can't let you go
1467
01:24:31,697 --> 01:24:33,198
until I know
one way or the other.
1468
01:24:33,198 --> 01:24:34,908
I already told you I was.
1469
01:24:34,908 --> 01:24:36,535
That doesn't
prove anything.
1470
01:24:38,036 --> 01:24:41,206
Then plunge your knife into me
and find out for sure.
1471
01:24:41,206 --> 01:24:45,210
If I'm Jesus, I'll survive.
Or die and be reborn.
1472
01:24:45,961 --> 01:24:49,172
Maybe you're just
a manipulative story teller,
and I'd be a murderer.
1473
01:24:49,172 --> 01:24:50,882
That's right.
1474
01:24:50,882 --> 01:24:56,054
But it still comes down
to the same choices:
stab me or let me go.
1475
01:24:58,599 --> 01:25:02,185
So just, stick this knife
in your eye or something?
1476
01:25:02,936 --> 01:25:05,021
Why not place it
on my right side?
1477
01:25:06,189 --> 01:25:09,275
- Like the Roman soldier
with the spear.
- Yes.
1478
01:25:11,653 --> 01:25:15,824
So you want me to stab you
right now as an act of faith.
1479
01:25:15,824 --> 01:25:17,408
I didn't say that.
1480
01:25:19,285 --> 01:25:20,662
But what if I want to?
1481
01:25:20,662 --> 01:25:22,038
Then you would be...

we're really close.
Call me.

with him, anyway? Hm?

01:26:31,066 --> 01:26:33,484
- Me?
- Yeah.
What'd he ever do to you?

that he ruined my life?

What happened,
Dr. Jenkins?
1499
01:26:43,453 --> 01:26:45,413
Well, you read my book,

You were all good friends,

1501

He told you his story
one night, then "just kidding"
and poof, he vanished.
1502
01:26:54,506 --> 01:26:59,094
I was angry. I felt betrayed.
We all felt betrayed.
1503
01:26:59,094 --> 01:27:02,305
And I left there that evening,
wanting to expose him
for the lunatic

01:27:02,305 --> 01:27:05,684
- that I thought he was.
- So you became

I'd given up hope
of finding him

how you went from a skeptic

01:28:41,404 --> 01:28:44,825
Okay, okay.
What went on here?
1526
01:28:44,825 --> 01:28:48,161
I don't know.
Philip said he was
calling an ambulance.
1527
01:28:48,161 --> 01:28:49,746
You need to call
the police.
1528
01:28:49,746 --> 01:28:53,499
- We don't know what happened.
- That's why you need
to call the police.
1529
01:28:53,959 --> 01:28:57,253
Philip might have done
something stupid.
1530
01:28:57,253 --> 01:29:00,549
Don't touch that.
You have to dial 911.
1531
01:29:00,549 --> 01:29:04,010
There's a broken chair
and some blood.
We don't know what went on.
1532
01:29:04,010 --> 01:29:06,847
Two people
and a car are missing.
1533
01:29:07,639 --> 01:29:09,432
We have to find Philip.
1534
01:29:09,432 --> 01:29:11,184
No, you have to call
the p...
1535
01:29:12,352 --> 01:29:13,812
I'll do it.
1536
01:29:13,812 --> 01:29:16,565
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa,
wait, wait,
just one minute, okay?
1537
01:29:16,565 --> 01:29:18,942
I don't want to get in trouble,
okay? No one does.
1538
01:29:18,942 --> 01:29:20,902
Let's just think about
what happened.
1539
01:29:20,902 --> 01:29:24,239
If the ambulance came,
then Professor Young
is in the hospital.
1540
01:29:24,239 --> 01:29:26,825
No. The paramedics
would have stopped
the bleeding down here.
1541
01:29:26,825 --> 01:29:29,703
There wouldn't be a blood trail
all the way up
the stairs right there.
1542
01:29:29,703 --> 01:29:32,330
- We're not criminals.
- No, no, you have no choice.
1543
01:29:32,330 --> 01:29:34,875
If the cops come,
then we all get arrested, okay?
1544
01:29:34,875 --> 01:29:39,588
Forget college,
forget everything. Our lives
are totally over, period.
1545
01:29:39,588 --> 01:29:42,966
But where are they?
1546
01:29:42,966 --> 01:29:46,302
Do you think
Professor Young
killed Philip?
1547
01:29:46,970 --> 01:29:48,597
- I...
- No way.
1548
01:29:48,972 --> 01:29:50,974
Maybe Philip
killed Professor Young.
1549
01:29:50,974 --> 01:29:54,770
Now that is impossible.
Because he would have had
to cut his head off.
1550
01:29:54,770 --> 01:29:56,312
And there's not enough blood
in here for that.
1551
01:29:56,312 --> 01:29:57,272
Ewgh!
1552
01:29:57,272 --> 01:29:58,649
That's a little graphic.
1553
01:29:58,649 --> 01:30:01,359
Maybe they both
just drove away together.
1554
01:30:01,359 --> 01:30:02,986
After having a knife fight?
1555
01:30:02,986 --> 01:30:05,238
Or a ritual sacrifice?
1556
01:30:06,322 --> 01:30:10,744
Okay, Professor Young
was leaving...
Maybe he just left.
1557
01:30:11,161 --> 01:30:13,872
No, because the Van Gogh
is still upstairs.
1558
01:30:13,872 --> 01:30:17,333
It doesn't make sense that he
would leave it behind,
after all these years.
1559
01:30:17,333 --> 01:30:20,003
Okay, listen.
Tara, why don't you
and Dr. Jenkins
1560
01:30:20,003 --> 01:30:21,922
call all the hospitals,
see if he's there.
1561
01:30:21,922 --> 01:30:25,466
Liko and I will stay here,
figure out what to do
with this.
1562
01:30:26,426 --> 01:30:28,136
Sound like a plan?
1563
01:30:33,517 --> 01:30:35,351
Oh, boy...

Well, I got your letter,
obviously.
1571
01:31:24,693 --> 01:31:28,154
I was surprised to hear
from you, to say the least.
And a letter.
1572
01:31:28,154 --> 01:31:29,656
- (HARRY LAUGHS)
- Well,
1573
01:31:30,198 --> 01:31:32,743

these days.

It was a lot
to absorb, John.
1576
01:31:43,629 --> 01:31:45,046
I know.
1577
01:31:47,674 --> 01:31:49,885
How are you feeling?
1578
01:31:49,885 --> 01:31:51,386
Still sore.
1579
01:31:51,386 --> 01:31:54,681
I'm not used to being injured
for an extended period of time.
1580

It's only been six weeks.
1581
01:31:56,725 --> 01:32:00,145
I've had much worse,
and I'm usually up
in a couple of days.
1582
01:32:01,104 --> 01:32:04,399
This is different,
Harry.
1583
01:32:05,066 --> 01:32:06,484
How so?
1584
01:32:06,484 --> 01:32:09,988
I don't know.
But I hope
I'll find out soon.

Reminds me
of a Schnauzer I had once.

- (BOTH CHUCKLE)
- Ouch.
- Ouch.
1587
01:32:18,454 --> 01:32:21,207
No, no.
I got it.
1588
01:32:21,207 --> 01:32:23,251
Okay.
1589
01:32:23,251 --> 01:32:24,961
So you're living here?
1590
01:32:24,961 --> 01:32:26,755
Uh, yes.
1591
01:32:27,463 --> 01:32:30,759
- How much longer?
- I don't know.
1592
01:32:30,759 --> 01:32:32,052
Hmm.
1593
01:32:35,180 --> 01:32:38,725
I think I found a name
for myself, Harry.
A classification.
1594
01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:43,271
- 'Holocene Man'.
- Ah, your dates
are a little off.
1595
01:32:43,271 --> 01:32:45,982
The Holocene
only goes back 12,000 years.
And you, you're...
1596
01:32:45,982 --> 01:32:47,693
- Oh, I know.
- (HARRY CHUCKLES)
1597
01:32:47,693 --> 01:32:51,404
I saw the ice melt,
watched the birth
of an epoch.
1598
01:32:51,404 --> 01:32:52,989
(CHUCKLES)
1599
01:32:52,989 --> 01:32:55,534
Yeah, well,
the scientific community
is starting
1600
01:32:55,534 --> 01:32:58,328
to coalesce around the idea
that the Holocene's over.
1601
01:32:58,870 --> 01:33:01,331
We're now living
in the Anthropocene.
1602
01:33:01,331 --> 01:33:03,166
Ta-da!
1603
01:33:04,167 --> 01:33:08,880
The impact of man's activities
on the planet being so severe,
it's changed it permanently,
1604
01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:11,257
creating a whole new epoch.
1605
01:33:12,425 --> 01:33:15,220
That would explain
a thing or two
about my condition.
1606
01:33:16,262 --> 01:33:17,848
End of an era.
1607
01:33:19,015 --> 01:33:22,686
Oh, John.
Come on, don't talk like that.
1608
01:33:22,686 --> 01:33:27,107
Well, everything ends.
And apparently,
nobody lives forever.
1609
01:33:31,319 --> 01:33:32,738
What is it?
1610
01:33:35,616 --> 01:33:39,828
John, I didn't do this,
come here, for any reason,
except you asked.
1611
01:33:40,453 --> 01:33:44,541
But since we're here,
and since we're talking,
I could really use your help.
1612
01:33:44,541 --> 01:33:49,087
It's my dad.
He's been sick for a while.
And now...
1613
01:33:50,547 --> 01:33:53,800
Would you be willing
to come home with me?
Just for a while?
1614

(CHUCKLES)
1615
01:33:56,595 --> 01:33:58,805
I think he would really like
to meet you.
1616
01:33:58,805 --> 01:34:02,225
I'll go check my calendar.
But I think I'm free.

- Thank you.

talk about John Young,

aka John Oldman,
aka John Magdel.
1625
01:36:29,080 --> 01:36:31,207
Yeah, yeah.
I know who you mean.
1626
01:36:32,042 --> 01:36:34,586
I don't know where he is,
if that's what
you want to know.
1627
01:36:34,586 --> 01:36:38,048
Oh, I'm aware of that.
If you knew where he was,
I'd know where he was.
1628
01:36:38,048 --> 01:36:40,383
Oh.
Is that so?
1629
01:36:40,967 --> 01:36:44,763
- Do you think he kidnapped
Philip Nichols?
- I hope not.
1630
01:36:44,763 --> 01:36:46,640
I'd hate to think
he'd hurt a kid.
1631
01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:49,685
You have reason to believe
he's capable of violence?
1632
01:36:50,310 --> 01:36:53,188
He hunts large animals
with a bow and arrow,
1633
01:36:53,188 --> 01:36:55,941
and he butchers them
with his own hands.
1634
01:36:55,941 --> 01:36:58,318
I have no idea what
he's capable of.
1635
01:36:58,318 --> 01:36:59,986
I see.
1636
01:36:59,986 --> 01:37:02,656
You've said this man
claims to be immortal?

Sometimes he claims it,
sometimes he denies it.

- Do you think it's true?
- I don't know anymore.
1639
01:37:07,911 --> 01:37:09,955
Maybe he's just older
than he looks.
1640
01:37:10,622 --> 01:37:13,499
You describe him
as over six feet, thin,
1641
01:37:13,499 --> 01:37:16,294
- with dark hair and eyes.
- Yup.
1642
01:37:16,294 --> 01:37:17,629
Interesting.

1644
01:37:20,549 --> 01:37:22,383
It's a cold case.
1645
01:37:22,383 --> 01:37:26,137
Crazy thing. His description
matches a guy,
died years ago.

at the scene of violent crimes.

different place,
but the same description.
1650
01:37:39,359 --> 01:37:43,530
I don't think John
would hurt people
intentionally.
1651
01:37:43,530 --> 01:37:47,075
But he is certainly
a skilled identity fabricator.
1652
01:37:47,618 --> 01:37:49,494
Maybe so.

such a thing could exist?
