TheConversation.org had its start when 9/11 dictated that we were in a new world.
At this threshold moment for humanity, when we must choose wisely to avoid what could be our annihilation, this site is dedicated to tracking the emerging intelligence that we need for our very survival, and to conversation in which that intelligence can be forged.
Let those who see beyond the idea of force imposing world order, to where we look to heal the causes of despair, meet here.
Interesting extras
Michael Moore's mailing list is well worth joining. "At this moment in living history, Michael Moore is every bit (pun intended) as important as Thomas Paine and Paul Revere were to 'The First American Revolution'. But, he's too close to the action to understand the impact of his work," says pal, Critt Jarvis.
This is a sensational piece of writing to understand the world: Escaping the Matrix, Richard K. Moore. The matrix metaphor is a big help to sort out complex issues.

This
site has been superceded by a new formatting, based on blog technology,
which will allow more of a conversation than this format does. On
the
new site, the focus is more on looking for answers than
on documenting problems.
Five Star Pieces that are the best of the best from the world press Quotes that have been plucked out of those pieces and taken from other writings that aren't in that top category. Soundbites that are pithy brief blurbs drawn from the Quotes. Monthly Reports that used to be in this space (archived through November of 2002). Various
Conversations tracks.
Anyone
wanting to dive in, those Updates would allow you to track our line
of thought. Also, I especially recommend the Featured Conversations
for the most original material on the site, where we are not just
reporting on what is going on but doing some thinking about solutions
in the problematic world in which we find ourselves. |
