Why The Venus Project Won't Work !!!!!!!!!

The prerequisite for any of the Utopian style societies to develop is a change, an elevation, in human consciousness. This is occurring, as it always has been, very slowly. As children are born into an elevated consciousness, they tend to ramp it up a notch. If children are born into a descending consciousness they tend to ramp it down a notch. Children, as always, are the key to propagating change. The change that you make in yourself is amplified in your children, even if they are just the kids next door, and not from your biological seed.

Although there is merit to the idea that human behavior conditions itself to the surrounding environment, it is a mistake to ignore the human nature from which it springs. So yes, we must change the environment, the government, the economic landscape, and more, to foster the new environment that will, in and of itself, create a new age.

Human consciousness, however, has never been, nor will it ever be, homogeneous. There will be Masters, and there will be learners, and there will be primitives. That isn't going to change and if that is left out of the model, it won't work. Waiting for the universe to exterminate the primitives, or waging genocide to kill them all, isn't going to work either. Whatever society will emerge, if it is to be successfully, must accommodate humans at every level of consciousness. To segregate the primitives and disenfranchise them from any new culture is just a new form of racism, and we all know that won't work.
