James Burke : The Day The Universe Changed: "Worlds Without End"

[Xipe Totec]

This series aired in 1985, 20 years before blogs, before Facebook existed, before crowd sourcing, before flash crowds, before social networking...

This video contains the last 6 minutes of the last episode of the series.

Remarkable, and inspiring.

The whole series is worth watching, particularly the complete episode, "worlds Without End"

7. it's a spoof

it's the essence of "me" morality, the will to power, mephistopheles, the devil, which is good only in moderation, I think. it's the same morality that's taken down the republican party.

[Jack Rabbit]

4. Prophetic

And here we are, at that crossroads, face with the choice of freedom and community or tyranny and hierarchy.
