Oct 2 2012: I agree that 2k characters may be "prohibitive". It is a start. It is my hope that the collective genius of people like you will complete what I have contributed.
Sep 8 2012: Thanks Mats, I think that we have a great deal in common philosophically on this subject. The more that humanity sees life from the perspective of what it can be, the more that humanity will realize that how we are living now is truly insane!
Sep 4 2012: Interesting perspective... Too bad that you have chosen to limit your exposure to new ideas in that way. Out of curiosity, what words would you use in their place?
Sep 4 2012: I would like to learn more about your ideas. This book is designed to get people thinking and contributing their own genius. Can you post your ideas on my website: http://thenewgame.org so that we can get some volley going and begin building on the concepts?
I am committed to the idea that we must get rid of monetary consumerism in order to have World Peace. How we get there is going to take a collaborative effort.
Sep 3 2012: Wouldn't it be great if the students and the world could play this game in a paradigm that would truly allow them to see that World Peace is not only possible but highly probable?
In the current paradigm (monetary consumerism), World Peace is not sustainable because the goal is not centered on humanity.

Sep 3 2012: I was actually making the point that the paradigm of life that we are living is like a game. Anytime we choose to play a new game where the goal is to have a great life experience instead of making money then, we have a chance at World Peace.
Have a look at my book, I think you will agree with my ideas: http://thenewgame.org
Sep 2 2012: I agree with some of what your are saying. However, if you look at life as if it were a game that we are playing... all things are skewed to that end. If the game that we were playing for all of humanity was to ensure that our fellow human beings have a great life experience, life would look entirely differently.
Of course there would still be disagreements, people who simply want to dominate others etc. but that would be the exception not the rule. Changing any protocol within the game of Monopoly does not change the fact that the endgame is to acquire as much as you can to win. If you really want World Peace, then you have to play a different game.
Sep 2 2012: Please read my new book "The New Game (World Peace)" I believe that world peace cannot be achieved unless we shift the paradigm from "Monetary Consumerism" to "Great Life Experience"
