Welcome

Welcome to Sheeple Liberation. The purpose of this blog is to be an extension and companion of a blog I created at MySpace . My specific interest in creating this blog is to provide a forum for the free discussion of current topics and to provide an ongoing resource to folks who are either awake or on the path to it. So many times in my life I have had experiences that shocked me into the awareness that what I thought I knew and what I assumed to be the truth was not so. I know there are many of you out there who have had similar experiences. The description of this kind of experience is that you know something is wrong, but you just can't put your finger on just what it is. I hope this blog can be a place where you can help yourself put together the pieces and also to share what you have learned.

In previous speeches, Michael criticized environmental groups for failing to incorporate complexity theory. Here he explains in detail why complexity theory is essential to environmental management, using the history of Yellowstone Park as an example of what not to do.

Thanks for posting this and bringing it to my attention. Great talk, lots to think about. I've been pursuing the social implications of complexity theory for some time now and agree with Crichton that it is a very important source of insight for how to live, lead and learn today.

I've been working on an iTeams workshop that makes complexity insights applicable to managers and team leaders.

In fact the greatest danger I see is the knee jerk response of everyone when responding to phenomena. To act before truly thinking is the cause of much personal as well as social suffering. The current US administration is an example of this. Alas, one of the most fearful animals (besides humans) are sheep. Alas "sheepleliberation". Thanks for reading and I appreciate your input.
