Three speakers stand out to me so far: Al Gore on the environment and choosing between going fast alone, or far together. Hans Rosling on development, equity, useful technology (by example) and on making the impossible possible.

interesting to see the minds of today standing on the heads of historical genius only to use its wisdom to further its socialist and humanist agendas. Social programming is in full swing in the intellectual elite all in the guise of advanced thought.

Sorry, Bill. I don't agree

on 2009-10-04 by pwelsh

I don't agree with Bill either. You can choose who you watch and when you shut it off. These are some of the best minds of our time.

Bill, have a look at Jonathon Haidt. It might help you understand how your reflexive, anti-liberal anti-elitism developed and see that there is truth outside the 'moral matrix' of left and right. It's brilliant.

Bill, i'm not sure what you are complaining about. are you saying no one should "do" social visioning/critiquing/advocacy (programming), or just those you disagree with? in my experience, the world of mono-thought isn't productive and is very lonely...

n February 2008, Karen Armstrong won the TED Prize and called for the creation of a Charter for Compassion to bring together people of different religions and moral codes in a powerful common cause. The Charter launches November 12, accompanied by thousands of self-organized events, services and sermons.

To help prepare the way, today on TED.com we offer six talks from six perspectives. Be ready for a surprise. Compassion is not the soft, fuzzy notion you might expect. Indeed, it might just be the best idea humanity’s ever had.
