Re: Zeitgeist: Project Venus Pioneers
I'm not sure over population is the issue. I think it is education and energy and health. And of course deception and dishonesty... and potential earth changes if these happen...
Knowing about free energy devices being developed globally… this one a 5kW WANG generator in China is one getting close to implementation ready http://www.free-energy.110mb.com/Magnetic_Motor.pdf more at the link I posted in free enegy section... If there was free energy, then there would be free clean water (from the sea) and therefore the food issue would be sorted due to desserts and clean water. All the oil pipelines in the world could be used to pump water and pretty soon the issues would dissolve… An Electric car with a large WANG generator in it and a flywheel hybrid system like the flybrid sytem would soon resolve the car issue or a car running on water such as Stan Meyers system. |

You might be right, materially; the issue has much more to do with the spiritual, though. Namaste, RaKaR www.futureofmankind.co.uk |

The following, latest update of the Earth Policy Organization on the state of global matters in this field, may help put things better in perspective: Earth Policy News - WHEN POPULATION GROWTH AND RESOURCE AVAILABILITY COLLIDE By Lester R. Brown "As land and water become scarce, competition for these vital resources intensifies within societies, particularly between the wealthy and those who are poor and dispossessed. The shrinkage of life-supporting resources per person that comes with population growth is threatening to drop the living standards of millions of people below the survival level, leading to potentially unmanageable social tensions. Access to land is a prime source of social tension. Expanding world population has cut the grainland per person in half, from 0.23 hectares in 1950 to 0.10 hectares in 2007. One tenth of a hectare is half of a building lot in an affluent U.S. suburb. This ongoing shrinkage of grainland per person makes it difficult for the world’s farmers to feed the 70 million people added to world population each year. The shrinkage in cropland per person not only threatens livelihoods; in largely subsistence societies, it threatens survival itself. Tensions within communities begin to build as landholdings shrink below that needed for survival."

Re: Zeitgeist: Project Venus Pioneers
Thanks for your insights, member Oedilroed.
Our answer to your concern is that, we people, volunteers, are the potential motor of Zeitgeist and Venus Project. We have reason, free will, preferences; we would take part to the democratic decision making, define the orientation and the essential content of this movement. We shall be active and correct it, when needed. We would also always be free to step out, when the contradictions between our own convictions and the line of actions of Project Venus would eventually be irreconcilable. As spiritual entities, we are exclusively sovereign. Regards, RaKaR www.futureofmankind.co.uk |

Greetings of peace to all,

In over 70 countries, there will be activities in different communities to show consciousness/awareness on and of the subject, but also to understand that there are solutions to the problems we have allowed to happen on this planet. Have a look at this site to get an overview of what will be happening worldwide: http://thezeitgeistmovement.com/wiki...arch_15th_2009 In Holland, there are a number of events that will be organised, including the largest one, in Amsterdam. See the information and link on this below: Z-DAY Amsterdam Kauwgomballenfabriek Studio's Daniel Goedkoopstraat 10-26 Time: 14.00h till 00.00h Entrance is free and drinks are cheap! http://zeitgeist.silverrose.nl/index.php?board=12.0 You can consult the program at this link: http://zeitgeist.silverrose.nl/index...7b&topic=171.0 We encourage everyone to come down and communicate with each other at this event, so that we can continue to raise consciousness and awareness in our societies of the situation and the possible solutions. Let us know if you will be joining. Cheers! Mark." So, Avalon' Project Venus Pioneers, express your will, let your voice be heard! - that is, post your plans here and they would be handed over to Mark. Looking forward to hearing from you. RaKaR. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marxism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technocracy_movement http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacque_..._Venus_Project The Venus project is directly lifted from the ideas of Karl Marx the person behind the ideology of Marxism. Addendum doesn't even talk about how a resource based economy would work! They're talking about a Marxist styled technocracy! They don't talk about how they handle the resources they talk about technology! We can't even make a crane without an even bigger one how are we supposed to make this kind of system without taking years of time to make the technology necessary to make it? It could take decades! All economies are resource based! You can't make anything without a resource! Just saying the phrase "resource based economy" is an oxymoron because it implies that it is the first economy to healthily distribute resources, which just isn't true! Look into this stuff! It's this ten percent of disinformation in Zeitgeist Addendum that is going to kill people! How can you believe that ALL economies are centralized when you haven't even discerned the economies that exist? Look at pot latch! The native americans used pot latch to spread the wealth! It was never a centralized economic system! It isn't even about money at all the Elite have more than they'll ever need they don't even care about money anymore! What they want is the privelege to control the planet! Even the barter system would be better than zeitgeist! We have a lot of other options we can try before this videos message would be made necessary. The New world order is designed to create a scientifically ruled society through Eugenics, Psychiatry, GMO agriculture, and technology! Don't fall for Zeitgeist's farce! It is merely copying and expanding off Alex Jones's, David Icke's And Arron Russo's Documentaries,and medias, like Endgame and America: Freedom to Fascism to get their own self benefits. I am for new ideas and as new as Zeitgiest sounds it is in reality NOT a new idea. Ever since Marxism was invented people have been pushing this in economic crises. One of the big downsides is in it's ideas of education and reeducation because it can dictate human belief systems. Last edited by Rainchild; 04-05-2009 at 04:25 AM. |

Of course technology is not evil or bad, but until you try this on a small scale your not going to be able to discern if Zeitgest can even keep their promise for this type of society. I don't think they have bad intentions I think their being tricked into something that they don't even fully understand. Where are the materials going to come from? How long is this going to take? How are we supposed to know how this going to work when they don't even provide a process for how it would be formed? Technology is a double edged sword it can have negative and positive affects and Zeigeist doesn't discuss that. This is just a bunch of Futurist rhetoric designed to create a kind of double think dream bubble where people don't even question the missing facts. Besides it sound like these people WANT to develop technology quicker. They only have small clips of spirituality in them and when they do they show things like all seeing eyes and hands shaping a pyramid! They even have Theosophic society's Christ in Addendum! Plus The director, Peter Joseph, ACTUALLY SAID, in Alex Jones's interview on the Alex Jones show, that they would reeducate a person who couldn't handle or understand that type of society. Don't even try to get out of that. It's in the video. There is a recording of him saying it. And thats exactly what they talk about in Marxism. I don't want to live in a world like that and I hope you don't either. Last edited by Rainchild; 04-05-2009 at 03:29 PM. |

Re: Zeitgeist: Project Venus Pioneers

I've spent most of my life working in an R & D environment, so I recognise that the present stage that Zeitgest ( and Jacques Fresco) is at is really not much more than a conceptual or visionary stage. Yes, it's going to take a lot more effort and work to evolve the vision to a reality, but we need to be grateful for the vision and I don't see that their role (unless they want to do it) is necessarily more than that. Their effort is more towards making people aware of their ideas, selling/ promoting it to the public; from experience I know that people that are good at conceptualizing are not necessarily good at implementing,..etc. Other people in a grass roots movement will have to pick up where they leave off and try to implement this on a prototype level. This part, to transform a society in a evolutionary way, is a huge challenge. No single person can promise to make this happen; considering that the establish powers do not want to lose power or control, it can only happen if there is enough critical mass for people working together to make it happen. The whole process requires a lot of work, making mistakes, corrections along the way. We are talking about building a new society, a new way of thinking, so if we can do this in a generation of two, I would consider that quick. |

If their effort was merely to make people AWARE of their ideas they wouldn't be glorifying their documentaries like a pill commercial with all that vivid imagery and hypno-screens. They are PUSHING their ideas! I notice that you don't even touch the evidence I put out. You don't even respond to the notion of it being a Marxist technocracy, but rather state the facts behind the structure of a grassroots movement, completely denying the information. I respect people coming up with new ideas, but like I said this isn't new. It's hard core Marxism. And the reason people don't agree with Marxism is because it is knee deep in reeducation techniques and Eugenics. It is a scientifically controlled society. And that is the essence of what the New World order really is. Last edited by Rainchild; 04-05-2009 at 09:30 PM. |

Re: Zeitgeist: Project Venus Pioneers
"You don't even respond to the notion of it being a Marxist technocracy..."
I didn't bother to respond to this because I didn't see the need to connect the benefits of technology with any political or centralised control government system, and it's not what I want to support. My interest is primarily in recognising that technology and a resource based system can free the people from working all day just to survive, so that they have more time to develop their spirituality. I don't believe that Jacque Fresco has any interest in linking it to a Marxist or any other political system at all. The social system I see is one where lawyers and politicians will be out of a job; such functions are totally incompatible with a spiritual based society. Jacque Fresco also expresses the same distain on any political system in the following Larry King interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVOPk...eature=related |

Re: Zeitgeist: Project Venus Pioneers
A Technocracy is not technically a political system. Because it is not ruled by any man, but is ruled by the machines and sciences man creates regardless if the sciences have truth behind them or not.
You mentioned a Marxist technocracy and you had link to Marxism, so that's probably where I got confused. In any case, I'm not interested in a technocracy; doesn't sound like you are, or any one else in this forum, so we're all in agreement. |
