THE AGE OF NEGLIGENCE: THE DEPRECIATION OF THINKING, PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY & CHOICE

Sixty people pay nearly $10,000 to become spiritual warriors at spiritual teacher James Ray's retreat. Despite the signals of the body and verbal complaints, they are encouraged to surpass their limits. Two die and dozens are hospitalized. Flocks of people stand together in defense of a Bible that they have never read and denounce people that they have never met. Teams of "patriots" protest legislation that doesn't exist. Less than half of Americans know that the earth orbits the sun. Have we given up personal responsibility for the comfort of victimization? Have we grown so weary of thinking that we allow others to do it for us? Have we surrendered knowledge for entertainment? Have we forgotten that not making a choice IS making a choice? Many suggest that we are quickly becoming a flock of ineffective sheep with a growing inability to engage critical thinking. Personal enlightenment gurus, organized religion, politicians, media pundits...to whom are you surrending YOUR power? Are we on the fast lane to destruction or can we turn this car around? Join Mark Ward, AJ Lambert and guest panelists Donna Blanchard and Mitchell Laks for a discussion about what we have become and where we may be heading. Call in and join the conversation. We want to hear what's on your mind.
