Be sure to continue critical evaluation! Although there are lots of really interesting arguments there’s another side to every story…

I’m not entirely sure why they refer to themselves as the Zeitgeist movement… Maybe they hope their ideas will become the “spirit of the age”?

I’ve only watched about 40 minutes but this is a really strong argument and their basis on biological evidence to show the harm that human actions and a lack of them can cause really makes me think that the actions that we call our nature are implanted in our mind simply because disobeying them brings us to all sorts of harm. Really we should just do what feels natural to us and let convention and society be damned? But as I say, this is based on the first 40 minutes and I haven’t really gotten into any analysis of the economic impact on human behaviour. Still it’s really awesome stuff.
Also, why is this called Zeitgeist? As I understand it, Zeitgeist is the popular standpoint of a certain period of time but most of the stuff they’re saying contradicts with our the current global standpoint on these issues?
Thanks.
