The Obedience experiment
September 30, 2010, 04:08:20 PM
I wasn't sure where to post this or if it has been posted before but I think everyone should watch this as it shows how scary our obedience to authority really is. This is the one thing that is at the heart of our planets suffering. If this can change, the world will change.

I was shocked at these results and It does feel and look like we could be undergoing a global version of this experiment. Even if this is not the case, it's food for thought.

We need to take responsibilty for our own actions. Our world is filled with people who 'do as they are told', from all walks of life. This needs to change and I know it is changing, slowly but surely. A steady structure of strong and independant people is developing, ones who can think for themselves and have the strength of morale character to say "NO" when what is asked/ demanded of them feels wrong. This is a big fear to face for many but together it can be done.

If everyone in the world stopped obeying orders and started taking personal responsibilty, how many would be left to answer for our suffering???

As Michael said, " Them!, THEM who???, it's about US!!!"

Interesting experiment and sad at the same time.  The results were shocking...it is scary to think that science is justifiable for inflicting pain on humans.  My God...how about the pain we inflict on animals?
Unfortunately, it brought to my mind the Nazi regime in Germany as well even before that guy mentioned it himself.

My only hope that people will start thinking and acting for themselves.  And maybe just maybe if we all lived by God's standards and listened to his authority we wouldn't inflict so much pain on others no matter who they are.

I guess we should question the "guy behind me" once in awhile.
