Zeitgeist: Moving Forward

If you were moved by Al Gore's film "An Inconvenient Truth," than you need to watch this film. If you believe issues including the riots in Egypt, and the bankruptcy in Greece are not going away anytime soon, than you need to watch this film. Not only are they not going away, but these issues are only getting worse and more frequent. It is time to stop ignoring our national and global problems, and confront them head on in a logical way. We have the knowledge and the power to save our planet and it is time to make a change.

"Zeitgeist: Moving Forward" is the third and final film in the zeitgeist series directed by Peter Joseph. The films are part of a larger movement to bring social change and reorganize world system. A world not run by corrupt politics, or radical religions, but in logical and proven science. A world in which our systems are put to the test, and if they fail then they are fixed, not avoided. And most importantly, a world in which science would eliminate the need for tedious jobs and money. This may sound like crazy talk to some of you who are reading this, but take the time to watch the film and then let me know if you think it is crazier than the world we live in now.

"Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed people to change the world. In fact, it is the only thing that ever has." (Margaret Mead)

  1. I watched about 30 minutes of the film and will return and watch the whole thing at some point. I've always had a soft spot for utopian visionaries, especially utopian visionaries who are 90+ year old architects (Jacque Fresco, who narrates the first part of the film). That said, I'm a bit skeptical about the factual/scientific basis of some of the claims made so far. Still, provocative stuff...

  2. The first half is a little wordy, but it gets better. The second half gets into Fresco's idea for a better world.
