I think that we might be being prepped to accept technology as our savior.

We already have to varying degrees. How many times have you heard someone say (myself included) "I couldn't live w/o my (some piece of technology)"?

What comes after technology is accepted as the answer to all of our problems, I simply don't know, but I am certainly worried.

The new zeitgeist addendum has eluded to all of our problems as being no match for technology, and that they can be simply addresed and "solved" so to speak using technology.

It also addresse the idea of turning current society on it's head and to begining to focus on people rather than profits, which is the good part. But imo this film is a mixed message, w/ dire consequences if not scrutinized thoroughly.

Logisticly speaking, it may be the case that technology can solve our problems, but imo we could become spiritually devoid or damaged as a result.
