What is the Zeitgeist Movement?

THE GOAL

We intend to restore the fundamental necessities and environmental awareness of the species through the advocation of the most current understandings of who and what we truly are, coupled with how science, nature and technology (rather than religion, politics, and money) hold the keys to our personal growth, not only as individual human beings but as a civilization, both structurally and spiritually.

THE CURRENT SYSTEM

We live in a society that produces scarcity. The consequence of this is that human beings must behave in self-preserving ways, even if it means they have to cheat and steal in order to get what they want. The monetary system REWARDS scarcity, waste, pollution, and overproduction.

WHAT MUST BE DONE

We must begin to transition out of these oppressive ideals and move towards a system which is designed to support human beings...not force them to fight in order to survive. Our current methods of social conduct have proven to have no chance in resolving the problems of environmental destruction, human conflict, poverty, corruption, or any other issue the reduces the possibility of collective human sustainability on our planet. The bottom line is that in order to change things for the better fundamentally, you must begin to address the root causes. We have to start somewhere. The most important step is education.

THE VENUS PROJECT

Consisting of the life work of social engineer Jacque Fresco, The Venus Project constitutes the application of the scientific method for social concern. Through the humane application of Science and Technology to social design and decision-making, we have the means to transform our tribalistic, scarcity driven, corruption filled environment into something exceeding more organized, balanced, humane, sustainable, and productive.

Last meeting went well :)

New projects/Updates:

Mass dvd/News Letter drop offs
More Coffee shop meetings (Bi-weekly)

The additional coffee shop meetings are coming into existence because simply word of mouth and research on the internet combined with coffee are awesome! ;) These meets are very casual and subject to change. This just helps motivation and personal research while also giving room to converse openly about new ideas and concepts.

IMPORTANT!


Due to the schedule switch, this months meeting will be @1pm downtown at the Brewtopia cafe.
There is usually a very good atmosphere there and has harbored some of my favorite topics of discussion. Plus GREAT coffee. :)

This meeting will be a much more laid back and casual. Meetings usually they are pretty laid back but this months will be more of a brainstorming/discussion session.
If there any questions, comments or concerns email me or call 989-450-2886
Thank you for your time and,
