30 Seconds to Educate the World

Re: 30 seconds to address the world

The kingdom of God is found within *all*; Learn the similarities between Love and fear and always remember to see the whole in every part. Namaste, Adonai.

That's it ;)
Edit: I'm being pro-individual / spiritual, and not anti-religious; Which is half the message itself.

:? Not off to a good start. We already have somebody trying to convert people to their form of voodoo...

The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart. Work out your own salvation; do not depend on others. No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

If you're ever curious about the world and wonder why it's not fair, take a step out of your surroundings and look for the alternative. Strive to be happy and don't forget to remember. It only takes a moment. It only lasts a moment.Then it's over.

:lol: No offense but these sound like fortune cookies! LoL

Just to give everyone a frame of reference, this is what you would be working with. Remember, your message can be quite simple. The more you say in 30 seconds, the less likely it is to be understood.

My form of voodoo is to look within, and there is no dogma found in this thought; As you are always your own best teacher.

I guess I had problems decoding your message...

Re: 30 seconds to address the world

I know there's far too much baggage that comes with the word 'God'; Would it be better if I said "Divinity is found within"?
Edit: Or how about a philosophical approach of: "All that is Good, is found within"?

Re: 30 seconds to address the world

If i could communicate with the whole world at one time i would say

"I am the lord thy god. Fear me and do Durakken's bidding for he is me and and I am he!"

Absolute power corrupts absolutely :lol:

I figured this might be more fun if people had an actual opportunity to post a message. Feel free to submit a response and/or encourage others ;)

I disagree.

Those who are corrupt once they gain power are more apt to express that corruption than when they lack the power, but someone who is not corrupt to begin with does not get corrupted by power.

If anyone seriously claimed any ability to teach the world in 30 seconds I think it might be somewhat entertaining and really, I'd love to hear the solutions to all the mysteries of the universe answered within half a minute.

That said, I think I'd go along the satire or comedy route to at least make folks happy for a little bit... much preferable to seeing 7000 or so Cybermen with exploding cybernettic heads because of an overtflux of pessimism.

I'm fictional and heroic like that.

(incidentally, the new season of Doctor Who starts in less than a week... )

Perhaps with 30 seconds, one could warn the world of the dangers of a soundbite culture, of editorial that only will scratch the surface of the issues that face the audience...

Here's my one

Your most important part is invisible to you. But it's existence is visible to those around you in your actions. There are wonderful people who can take care of it.
They are neurologists and it's your brain
THINK!

That's almost half of the point of this little exercise... You gotta know your audience ;)

They wouldn't listen.
It's hypothetical... Think of it as a TV commercial that everyone will eventually watch once except you'll have their complete undivided attention for the entire 30 seconds ;)

There's not much you can really say in 30 seconds... Perhaps something like:

"You know that think you're most sure of? Yeah, you're probably wrong about it. Have a nice day. :cool: "
