The Zeitgeist Movement - A better way for humanity

[Amade]

If you thought harder about this you would know Chaos would soon follow without a currency.

Explain.

YOU DON'T WANT ANY CURRENCY?

I just flipped a stuff. You broke me. This is all about getting rid of CURRENCY? What would we have to live for? There would be anarchy everywhere! This is the worst idea I have ever heard of!

LOL that's the entire idea. Stop posting and start watching. You have trouble grasping the concept because it's so radically different from everything you know. Yes, it's hard to imagine, but it really is better. If it's so terrible then please specifically bring up points proving this.

@Dodger, Port Akiva: Watch Addendum and you'll see the connection. The point is valid.

Stealing is a crime motivated by scarcity, a product of the monetary system, which would be eliminated. There

"I feel as though my share is not sufficient so I will steal.", "I want to have more power over everyone else so I will steal", "I am an starfish so I will steal." You believe no one will think any of these?

[Thar]

When we realize that a world-wide system is what this is based on and not the idea of nations, it tends to make more sense. Think in that mindset.

My country is my world, my religion is to do good.

Oh wow.

My dad tries to bring me up to be loveually pure yet I think dirty thoughts like every 10 seconds.

My parents tried to bring me up with Peace/love style ideals, But I'm still a greedy asshat.

Those parts cover nothing about the subject. I could grow up with a family that teaches these morals and still end up as a drinker, raper ect.

Really, you blame environment and surrounding the cause of the human condition. It's the mindset of a person and the decisions they make.

The environment shapes your mindset. I have trouble believing you know what the parts of the documentary cover considering it's two hours long and your first post in this thread was nowhere near 2 hours ago.

[Thar]

Could we please just watch the loving movies so we can have an informed debate please?

Human nature will always be corrupt in a way as long as there is a need for power, and there will always be someone wanting power in society, it's just natural.

As long as I'm alive, this movement will never take effect.

where is addendum?

It's the google video link in the first post...

You were exposed to the outside world.

Explain.

It's only a Utopian dream.
In reality if you eliminate currency completely without using something to replace it people are going to turn around steal your goods and make a growing blackmarket.

[Port Akiva]

i don't have 2 hours. can you summarize it for me?

[Jorici]

You don't even need to be intelligent to know that there will ALWAYS be bad people stealing and doing crimes. Without anyone to enforce these laws what will happen? I am also pretty sure that we would lose most technology, due to the fact that we must pay for it, and that other countries won't give us anything for free. And working without pay? That is.... ugh.  What you guys described was anarchy at it's worst.

This would exist if people believed there was scarcity - and there would not be scarcity. If you would watch addendum you'd know what Thar and I are talking about. I am completely certain Thar and I are the only people in this thread who have a clue.

No.
