From Wikipedia:
"Zeitgeist is the general cultural, intellectual, ethical, spiritual, and/or political climate within a nation or even specific groups, along with the general ambiance, morals, sociocultural direction, and mood associated with an era."

The late Carl Sagan (1934-1996) was a hero in the scientific community and a role model for everyone else around the world. Carl Sagan's' influences carry today because his words, hence his empirical point of view, seem to be ever more appropriate in our current economic and political climate.

The video does not advocate that Carl Sagan supported The Zeitgeist Movement as he passed long before its conception. Rather, using his own words, to simply show how Carl Sagan was in line with the thoughts and direction of this movement that concerns all of human kind.

  • Wonderful, brilliant and inspiring! One error in the video about slavery being eliminated. This is not only incorrect but today (16 years after Sagan's death) there are approximately 25 million people living in slavery.

  • @mattscottm2 Yes, and billions if one's definition covers economic slavery.

  • He was near the answer to solve our problems as a society.

    Let's face it, Jacques completed the puzzle by saying "let's take money out of the scene". It's the "checkmate" to our main problem - the distortion of human values.

  • wonderful video! even with CC. awesome.

  • fucking awesome,needs views

  • @RestauranteChines Most people know this... imo any enligthened NON philistine mind knows these ETERNAL truths, most big thinkers, who mainly tend to be physicists/math/philosophers (obviously). They recognize these truths fast, nothing can exist without truth, not equality, justice or even peace.

  • Good Video, but Every time someone makes a video, do you REALLY need to have some dumb hip hop beat in EVERY GOD DAM VIDEO?!??!?!?!

  • thank Jah for Youtube...this is truly beautiful

  • A great video for an amazing human being.

  • @eusanties then you don't understand zeitgeist:p

  • Love you , Carl Sagan.

    from Brazil

  • A message most of us haven't heard, but have all felt.
