I listened intently and only heard gibber jabber! There were no revelations, no information, only rhetoric. I am not impressed. Maybe if there was some sort of message rather than the rantings of someone who wished he had something great to say. He has all the supporting language for grand ideas, but none were present.
This is the first part of a 10-part series. Persevere and the message becomes much clearer an more profound. I was introduced to this with part 2 and carried on from there and i agree, this first part is incoherent and a poor introduction to one of the best docu's i've seen in ages.
Swimme and Thomas Berry go hand-in-hand along with Drew Dellinger..... They are all inspiring!
I was introduced to all of them at an 'Awakening the Dreamer' Symposium. It was a beautiful event with many people who are taking actions to move our world forward in a more sustainable ways.
We economic slaves see this and other truths as self evident
Those in power see this as a threat to their control over us
Religious, economic and societal control depend on the myths to maintain control of the corrupted rotting systems
Greed and self interest allow them to continue to corrupt future generations through corrupted education systems and dominance of the information systems used to perpetuate the myths
God is a lie, Je Sus is not coming and GovCorp is out to kill us all Amenstop
Well dude, The system is truly a lie, money made the whole globe slaves, and we live in a lie , but God , well, it is a matter of how you see it, i see God as all the universew, everything, good and evil, right and wrong, He is the equilibrium of everything. You do not need myths to make your belief, you just have to look around, see the trees, the nature, breathe the air, and you will feel God. :) Peace out.
Err.. thats a great way to look at it... however you can drop the word "God" since you are saying it is just a conceptual idea that helps to envelop all that is rather than some mystical being. Also, I applaude that outlook. Its time for reality.
Brian is one of my favorite thinkers of our time. Thanks for posting the thoughtful videos!

Artis, that's probably because this is just a 6 minute tip-of-the-ice-burg introduction to Swimme's work...
He has written some interesting books and has done work with Thomas Berry and others that you may want to check out before you bash him. Peace :)

Thank you for sharing this. There will be an amazing transformation in humanity if/when Dr. Swimme's message finally gains widespread acceptance.

We live between the old industrial story and the new ecological story.
Maybe human beings will evolve into cosmic/holistic beings.
Perhaps Swimme has some thoughts on how this might happen.

Yes, we need a new story that might actually be true for once.
We have had enough fairy tails!
