It appears perhaps you're accustomed to discussing these issues with lightweights or people who accept whatever you have today.
You insult the intelligence of the people here to use this movie, which was found to have been financed by a cult, to backup your claims...
Awake! Let your message Ascend to a Higher level! Really, sir...
A few reviews on the movie below, and believe it or not this is relatively tame to some of the stuff I've seen written about the movie. It appears that the part that bugged most people is the cult tried to hide that they were involved in making the movie, and raped science by having several poseur "experts" in the film.

"Turns out there were more psychics than physicists producing and starring in the film delivering these insights. Specifically: members of a doomsday cult centered upon the blond lady, who actually turns out to be JZ Knight, a channeler who claims to be speaking in the voice of Ramtha, a 35,000-year-old warrior king. In "Bleep," JZ Knight's voice sounds increasingly like Tia Carrerre's in "Kull the Conqueror" as Ramtha grips her soul. The accent comes and goes, maybe depending on Ramtha signal strength. Supposedly Ramtha's not from Atlantis but from a neighboring island, which has often been overlooked. Think of it as the ancient sunken city-state version of New Jersey. "

"So after a little bit of digging I learned that yes, in fact, this movie was completely financed, filmed, produced, and directed by a cult. The cult being led by the person most interviewed in the movie, a woman named J. Z. Knight who believes she is channeling some long-dead Seer of Atlantis.
Yoiks.
So we all went and we were all frightened. Not only did the makers of this movie completely rape quantum physics, they used the idea of science and the scientists who appeared to justify the underlying theme of this movie...which was basically: Join our cult!
The movie did have some cool effects and some good ideas for how to live your life...but it doesn't excuse what they did."
Insanity.
Its actually cool. I think I have witnessed a certain strain of insanity in its purest form.
