The film features inviting faces and personalities that are a touching reminder of the melting pot that we call humanity and the mystery that we have given many names. Controversial, hopeful, heartwarming and sometimes shocking Rodger's film reveals the diverse beliefs with which we were raised, and subscribe to solely because we are told to. He questions why we often blindly "believe" without direct experience or personal introspection. "I was fed up with the childish schoolyard mentality that permeates this world - I call it the "My God Is Greater Than Your God" syndrome - where you have grown men flying airplanes into buildings shouting "God is Great" - where you have the leader of the free world telling the BBC in 2003 that he invaded Iraq because God told him to -- None of these concepts made any sense to me," states Rodger, "So I decided to go around the world and ask people what they think." Rodger produced, directed, wrote and shot the film with an incognito skeleton crew consisting of one other - Patrick Ellis, a line producer tripling as sound man and B camera operator. Alexander van Bubenheim, a composer, also traveled on part of the shoot collecting sounds and incorporating them into music that binds the film together, and surprises us at the same time resulting in an extraordinary, original soundtrack. One of the most poignant moments in the film is when Rabbi Menachem Froman (an Orthodox Jew) and Ibrahim Abu El-Hawa (a Muslim community leader and peace advocate) embrace. The two men are active in an organization that encourages dialogue among Jews, Christians and Muslims. "God is in the space between us," poignantly shares Rabbi Froman. "My visit to the holy land surprised me the most," shares Rodger "There is a desire for peace from both the Palestinians and the Israelis. It is the politicians that are messing the situation up. It is not a conflict of religion - it is a conflict of Land, Politics and EM

  • XZRS: Lucy Wyatt - Approaching Chaos
    Approaching Chaos - Could an Ancient Archetype save 21st Century Civilization : Could an Ancient Archetype save 21st Century Civilization? - There can be little doubt that our twenty-first century civilization is facing economic, ecological and spiritual meltdown. In this intriguing new book, Lucy Wyatt takes a highly original and relevant look at just what we can do to reverse this very real and potentially disastrous situation. The product of some ten years of comprehensive and passionate research, Approaching Chaos urges us to take a good look way back beyond those societies always admired as the first civilized examples, to re-think accepted accounts and concepts of history and go back over 5,000 years to focus on the Bronze Age civilizations. Nearly always considered to be both primitive and pagan, Lucy Wyatt reveals them to be in many ways extraordinarily sophisticated, well-rounded and highly successful infrastructures that combine the spiritual and the practical. She ardently believes that from them the ancient Greeks and Romans actually learnt and, even more pertinently, we can learn a tremendous amount that has been disregarded for far too long. In taking a fresh look at, amongst other things, the origins of farming and urbanisation, the extraordinary way that the Egyptians used metaphysics, ultrasound and alchemy, the rise of Monotheistic religion and Christianity, Lucy Wyatt presents a brave and compelling over-view of ancient history. Approaching Chaos challenges long accepted thinking on the origins of civilization and uncovers many illuminating insights into how we could help ourselves today. - http://www.approachingchaos.co.uk/
