		<description>i dont know where to start what to say or not ..
@the VP it is amazing yes .. but as long as structure and levels exist i doubt much will be changed (or shall change back so to say at a later stage)
some will be engineers and will avail higher benefits others farmers and cleaners and different. some living in higher panormaic suites and some basement .. what about all the people already with soo much of possessions and property and bank balance.
we will need to get over soo much in order to actually go ahead with the VP , drop our habits our addictions our everything.
ofcourse theres the thing about law, now as long as that is there again there will be power and thereby clashes.
now one cannot do without it as well.
the middle class and not well to do already will definitely love this idea but those well established wont. in order to overcome and make a change everything should be abolished money religion everything - which is not possible, not without some sort of major event or turnaround cataclysm right? 
we need to see things as it is 
as of now i really cant see it happening .. im sorry but i cant .. for it to happen everyone (the world) should willingly move into it which we all at the same time know is close to impossible.</description>

		<description>I believe The Venus Project will come into exsitence when we have the complete collapse of Wall Street, Major Banks, Big Corporations. Jobs are becoming scarce due to the fact of automation and outsourcing. There will be a time when they&#039;re twice as many people than jobs. Hopefully then people would wake up and realize there is better solution, which is The Venus Project. My question to any one out there is can we start up The Venus Project on small scale? For instance any nation with sufficient resources and technology and setup a Venus Project society for a trial run. If it&#039;s a success other nations would follow.
Please enlighten me with this info.</description>

I wathched the Venus Project movie last night and was impressed with some of the ideas. However, the seeming need to rely only on science and absent spirituality concerned me greatly. Thank you for stating exactly what my spirit was saying. We are in the situation we are in largly due to our unwillingness to open ourselves to Love. Science with out submission to Love is just another ism.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I agree love should be the driving force of our action.</description>

		<description>How can all these wonderful things happen? they cannot. I believe that what the Venus project proposes is a true alternative to the way of life we lead now, but I must face the truth about people and say that most will not change. Sure, we voice such positive opinions to make ourselves look better in front of others, but few people will initiate a change in themselves, few will immediately act upon their convictions and stop using gasoline and take the bike to work instead. We bow and scrape for the lord and queens and celebrities of this world, forgetting that they are those belonging to a class which leads us all by our noses - or better said by our dreams of being like them. 

So to say, my opinion is that change will not happen, not to the level required in order to move the Venus project to an &quot;enterprise&quot; which will yield results matching and eventually surpassing the evil done to planet earth. We are all being too optimistic. The western world and our model of living will extract the last bit of life from the earth, before realizing it&#039;s all gone and we need to change.</description>

		<description>The Venus project is a wonderful idea and it will need many people to support and develop it. Thank you guys for your dedication. I have some thoughts that I&#039;d like to share with all of you: do you really think that the technology will help developing healthy and happy humans? I am afraid that we do not understand the basic structure of this form of consciousness called &quot;life on earth&quot;. We&#039;ve been developing technology and it&#039;s been turned against the idea of humans. I believe that to reach this level of &quot;life&quot; we need to reprogram humans first. It&#039;s been proven so many times that the more we develop technology the more we suffer. The human&#039;s project is failing. Every single idea about developing the life outside of life structure was proven wrong. That is what is happening with the &quot;bad guys&quot; who create society on wrong premises. Money as an idea, by itself does not have any power to do anything. But people with undeveloped mind, who do not know who they really are can use that idea and turn it into a monster. They are simply not aware of the whole process. At the end of &quot;life&quot; on this level everything on this level will stay here. 
Before we go on and start any single &quot;new&quot; or &quot;old&quot; idea, we need to put everything into the right perspective. Not a single thing on this level of consciousness cannot be &quot; alive&quot; unless we as humans put our life energy into it. I&#039;d like to say - heal the human&#039;s idea first and than everything else will come through us. The beauty, the life, the creation. 
To reprogram the idea of humans, we need to know and understand the whole process of creation, simply because we are the only one who can do that. We, as the representatives on this level of consciousness have the power, the knowledge and everything was given to us by the same idea of human&#039;s creation. 
If we do not give the chance to the idea of the ideal of human beings, I am afraid that we will end every single thought of the development into a disaster. 
Please give us a chance to become the ideal of the idea of humans first. Everything else will follow us, as it always did.</description>

find a charter school, and talk to the administrator.  Perhaps your child needs to be tested before starting school, to see where he is functining on all needed skill levels.  He needs some type of non-traditional format to give enough structure that all areas needed are still covered, but as he is ready and needs the different instructions.  As a parent of 3 gifted and one retarded child, I can tell you that you will have to make getting the gifted child an appropriate education your life&#039;s work, starting now.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been a fan of the Venus project for a year or two, and think the ideas presented here are wonderful.

I do, however, think it is also slightly impractical. Not as in un-doable by any means - we can and must follow this path to survive and prosper as a species. By impractical I mean that there is too much focus on theory and not enough focus on practice. How do we get from here, with all of our current problems, to there, with all the benefits? The best intentions in the world never changed anything, only action.

And I&#039;m not convinced it will be bloodless - few radical changes ever are. While we may have the best intentions in the world, existing power structures are well entrenched, and won&#039;t give up without a fight. A fight we can&#039;t give them - if we sink to the traditional methods of force and violence, we&#039;ve already lost what we were fighting for.

I don&#039;t have a complete answer, of course, but I&#039;m looking for one. I&#039;ve recently started a new blog, with the express purpose of working out in writing how we get from here to there (as well as spreading the word). The site is still fairly new and the early articles scattered, but rest assured that the messages of the Venus project and the Zeitgeist movies are my primary message. If you&#039;re interested, take a look at http://threewestwinds.com - A Clear View for a Stormy Future.</description>
