No editIn the above you'll find a remarkable film made by students on their film course. There's no edit which makes it rather clever. Reminds me of the opening sequence of 'The Player', which is a single edit. Cuaron's 'Children of Men' had a sequence that looked as if there were no edits, but it was just very clever cgi. Get Curious!

Just finished watching. Thanks, Fuzzies! I esp. liked it when the villainous driver was squirted with ink! Put me in mind of the old Wiley Coyote and Road Runner cartoons. Had that feel about it. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Here's a neat video I watched yesterday; on Ben Underwood, blind at 2yo and used echolocation to "see". Remarkable. His mother Aquanetta was amazing as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLziFMF4DHA(5 clips... to see the others click on "More Info" in right panel) ------------------------------ The opposite of joy is not sorrow.

Man, I didn't even get all that excited when The Dark Knight was coming out, but this looks awesome. "This is an old song These are old blues And this is not my tune But it's mine to use" |

Thank you, Fuzzies. I found the video to be very interesting. The parts about childhood development and group dynamics were especially interesting. I am wondering if your title is a little misleading though.
The majority f the video was about the time the psychologists spent in a cult whose members, lived, socialized and worked together. When describing her experience, and her expertise, she uses the term “extreme religious groups” and “cults” that perpetrate child abuse.
I think it would have been more accurate to title the link, Jill Mytton, psychologist, on extreme religious groups, (or cults), and child abuse.
Very interesting though.

Dawkins: "[...]You've also made reference to a sort of prevention of the child reaching its full potential. Um, tell me a bit about that?"
Mytton: "Well, if you suppress the natural inquiring mind of a child, which I believe I was suppressed in that way, I was not allowed to ask questions, and I had lots of existential style questions in my head as a child, but I would never dare come out of them because - out with them because the reprisals would have been, um, quite severe."
Dawkins: "What about less extreme religions than the Exclusive Brethren, presumably, uh, in your list of clients you have people coming from all different sorts of religion. Do you meet the same kinds of problems with them as well?"
Mytton: "Yes. Um, there seems to be a continuum, in my opinion, between what you might call a 'healthy' religion, to a 'unhealthy' or 'pathogenic' type of religion. I think the Exclusive Brethren is at the severe end of that scale. I think it is possible to have a healthy attitude towards religion, but it would need to be a very open and flexible one, and certainly some of the Christian clients I've had have had that. They perhaps haven't even joined a church. They're Christians as an individual, rather than as a group. I mean, the whole term religion is quite complicated, isn't it? Because you can have individual religion or you can have a religious system."

Yes it was interesting. Thanks. Just to repeat myself, the majority of the video was about the Exclusive Brethren Cult’s, as well as other 'extreme religions,' group dynamics and abuse. Your excerpt above is a very small part in a 50 plus minute video. I’m glad you did not intend the title to mean 'all religion' as child abuse. I just thought a different title would be more accurate.  ----------------------------- "In all of our hearts lies a longing for a Sacred Romance.

This is possibly the funniest thing ever posted on Youtube. Big call, but I'm serious. I mistook it for satire at first, only to discover it's a real ad campaign.
America really is... ...amazing.
