    At this time I tend to believe that New Age Groups may be the most likely to successfully initiate local currencies and use them to finance film projects in which homeless people could become actors playing the role of homeless people.... .which could easily finance their buying or renting homes????!!!!

    I'm not too much of an economist but that doesn't seem to be a very good long term solution. If the money is only good in that town, and no one else recongizes it, then the money has no value. If you tried to expand outside the town, then it would be pointless because you don't have any money to do it.

    Excellent point Kranes56! Yes..... over the first decade or two each of these local currencies will face the problem of not being accepted in a large area...... this is perhaps the major weakness with www.CalgaryDollars.ca/ and the Ithaca Hour... .. but .....once many communities as well as groups are taking advantage of our economic freedom to create such currencies...... then it comes down to largely a database problem to get two or more communities to cooperate with each other!

    But then wouldn't that eventually lead to one town being the most trusted form of currency and instead of different money, it would still come to be just one? The cycle is only going to continue on.

    True...… that is one very probable outcome.............. I feel the key is to get the people of those two or more towns or cities to cooperate on some altruistic projects that they both agree on......and have the people and resources to approach from a somewhat different angle that the people of each town or city can respect......… even if their contribution has a different flavour.

    I am a Hebraic Roots Universalist Christian Mystic so I have certain biases regarding where this will probably lead over the coming decades and centuries:

    North American churches should each have their own currency!

    I personally have advocated for the creation of a Vatican Currency Unit which.... in theory ..... could play a significant role even in the financing of the Jerusalem Third Temple complex as predicted by Ezekiel in chapters 40 - 48????!!!!


    Do you believe a massive Holy Spirit tsunami is coming?

    Personally I love the idea put forward by a pastor in Uganda that when we Christians support and respect the Jewish people more as they play their role in bringing back Messiah, the Holy Spirit will be poured out unlike ever before in history!

    That makes a lot of sense to me!

    I have to admit that the fact that the lake that my home overlooks is classified as tidal water........ has an effect on what I personally regard as the most pressing threats posed by climate change??????!!!!!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/showthread.php?t=288721

    Rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple may be least expensive way to stabilize climate?



    I am fairly certain that this verse in the Jewish Bible is certainly not advocating that in the era of Moshiach that every body has to go to Jerusalem to observe the Festival of Tabernacles, merely that nations allow their Jews and Noahides to freely travel to and back from Jerusalem in order to observe Tabernacles.

    http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible...&v=1&t=KJV#top
    As more of us come to the realization of how dangerous the melting and cracking and sliding that is going on in Greenland and the West Antarctic Ice Sheet really is, we will be more inclined toward supporting the Jewish people in their desire to rebuild their Third Temple.

    Ashok...… I personally feel that local currencies have the potential to set in motion a series of events that could prevent the disaster that you wrote about recently:

    I just watched a film about a possible way to clean up after the Fukushima disaster.....and it is obvious that the speaker here.....could be viewed as a potential actor....... who could star in a series of documentary and reality film projects....... where the technology he is promoting is tested for effectiveness????!!!!

    Another aspect of this question is that people might have good reason to trust local level politicians more than ones who live thousands of miles away from them????!!!!

    It will work fine as long as there are:1) trust in the issuer and 2) faith that it will be converted to cash or something of value like credit/goods/services in some form.

    Exactly.... over in this Facebook group:

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/NearDeathExperiencesbringusTogether/

    I began a discussion with this quotation that I am hoping to expand into one theory on how groups of people printing up local currencies and linking them to film projects could transform the economy of North America........ and later on the whole world!!!!????

    Two million gay men living in Uganda are genuinely worried about their future...… it might be possible to use documentary, reality and semi-reality films combined with local currencies.... to assist them in many ways!???

    If an attempt is made to link the currency to volunteerism... and if perhaps a measuring unit of one hour is used as is done in the town of Ithaca, New York.... then near death experiencer Christian Andreason may be the perfect person to focus this initiative around.

    There is a saying that if a film does not deal with a conflict.. .then the film is boring.

    Here is a letter by Pastor Rick Warren... addressing the Christian pastors of Uganda.... about the terrible anti-Gay bill that was in front of the parliament of Uganda last year...... that in my opinion as a Christian he handles quite well.......... This letter and especially the footage of Pastor Warren addressing the pastors of Uganda has the potential to save thousands.... if not tens of thousands... if not hundreds of thousands of lives... over the coming years and decades in Uganda alone!!!!!!!

    One possible angle on a film.... would be to use remaining pieces of The Stanley Meyer hydrogen fuel dune buggy..... as a prop in a sense.... and Dr. Steven Greer as an actor starring as himself ... and.......in a sense the future of the planet stands in the balance????!!!!

    Will UFO's assist in bringing peace to the world?????



    I personally am now wide open to this possibility...... but I sure wasn't ready for the idea until I read this part of the NDE account of Christian Andreason:

    hopelessly utopian - first off, having a bunch of homeless as your staff, just wouldn't work out - many of them have issues etc.

    secondly, how can you tell if someone is homeless or not anyway?
