What is the next age? (i.e., industrial age)
#55
RE: What is the next age? (i.e., industrial age)
I don't think it's peaked, but let's look at the "instant communication age" we're in.

Advancements:
Library expansion
information storage,computation, transmission and availability increased exponentially
expansion of Global markets (economics, jobs, ideas, etc.)
Automation
AI
Internet governance
Attention economy
I'm sure there's more

What conclusin can we draw from the effects of these on people and their motivation?
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
