THE FORUMS
Probably the most beautiful movie i've ever watched anyway.
Complete planetery rethink and transformation for the good of the earth and everyone in it?
I'm all for it!

Just watched it. It's one of the greatest thing I've ever seen.
Totally changed my motivations, I'm not even sure what to do right now.
I can see that taking the Ko Phangan trip couldn't be planned later, this looks like the only chance in years we'll have to travel and see the world.
So it really just solidified my motivation, because if I don't transform as a person now, when will I get the chance to, if even given one?
Best movie.

This and other consciousness transforming material is desperately needed in our world. Things like this aren't a matter of believing or trusting information or experts on what they believe. It is about personal transformation.
I don't know about you guys but picking up chicks has gotten a whole lot more meaningful.

Brutal honesty
Thousands of years ago when we were all cavemen it was hard to survive, many died. The strongest lived and passed on their genes.
Hundreds of years later people had to work hard to make a living and provide for their families, things were getting better...
Today - with welfare and basically anyone in need of a job being able to get a job and make ends meat no one (in countries like the united states) can honestly say that things are as bad as this movie makes them out to be.
I'm not saying our monetary system doesn't work as the movie described it. I am saying i don't care that some old rich dude is making trillions off us. Kudos to him, he too is mortal.

Finished it, and amazing.
Humans do need to step it up to the next level of consciousness. Actually we are static and behind our potential. Obviously to reach the kind of level of The Venus Project is no where near soon, but baby steps. It's sad to see people starve and live without shelter with all the technology and resources we have. Shit, we have enough food to feed the whole world and yet hundreds of millions of people get shit all. For a lot of us it's not that bad but It's Also sad to see people defend and stick with a believe system rather then giving a reaching hand to those who are need for help.. Some people say "The strongest survive, look at my musckelz". Well guess what we are all the same and we got to start seeing the human race as a whole. We are always evolving if not physically, consciously, and to hinder that will deprive us of our growth to great potential and survival.

The way I see it:
Monetary system = Ego
Venus Project = Self-esteem
But then again, I get where you're coming from... But I think having the world recourse based will at least stop ruining the world with pollution.
Doesn't matter who's at the top or survives "natural selection" when the world ends.
The triollionaire is indirectly killing hundreds of thousands by not sharing recourses. I mean, the ones at the top aren't even happy or transformed which in reality is "the top", so what's the point? All it does is hinder a lot of people having the chance to transform.
Capitalism is very sick IMO, the mindset of "taking what's yours" and telling everybody else that need help to fuck of and to save themselves. What about the people who were born in the scarcity you created mr. Capitalism? And it's almost impossible, as you've seen to it, that they can "get what's theirs".
So shooting a guy in the leg before a sprint and then when you cross the line you say "well, he could've just helped himself and jumped on one foot as fast as I run".
I know it's a lot more complicated than that, but fundamentally a society with it's top priority of profit will make just a handful happy.
I believe in giving everyone a chance.
Like the guys on here said, the new consciousness. Humans are evolving past their caveman habits.
BUT, won't this create a lot of problems too? You betcha, but let's see what happens because continuing this way will destroy the lab where humans get to test new behaviors and evolve.
So, at least the Venus project won't kill us all, lol.

I really liked Addendum it reminded me of Atlas Shrugged alot,
Atlas Shrugged Zeitgeist Addendum
-elite few ruling -elite few ruling
-economic hitmen -economic hitmen
-media controlled propoganda -media controlled propoganda
-dumbing down of population -dumbing down of population
-sonic ray wave weapon (project x) -WMD's / nuclear weapon research
+ alot more..
There are definitely alot of points to think about, very interesting. This documentary makes me very curious to know what the world will be like for our next generations and it's great to see such releases getting more popular especially when they are promoting concepts like awareness conciousness and identity.
recommend this docu to everyone on this board.
