It is necessary that children have the freedom to learn directly that fire burns; it is not necessary that such lessons involve destruction of life on earth. Child-proofing a home is not about reducing children's freedom; it is about reducing adverse consequences of exercising freedom.

The Freetimea Project is (in part) about child-proofing the planet. Currently there are frisky young souls playing with large matches all around the globe.

Child-proofing the planet will take (at least) another 70 years to accomplish, and involves various "lines of work":

• Bringing in energy
• Bringing in ideas
• Connecting people
• Manifesting ideas (experimental communities, software systems, ...)
• Negative shocks (Anti-Christ, Armageddon, earth changes, ...)
• Positive shocks (Second Coming, Ascension, ...)
• Production
• Services
• ...

All the various lines of work are complementary; all are necessary.
This particular site has to do with bringing in ideas.

(The foregoing introduction is not very good: "childproofing" has a distinctly paternalistic flavor, not everyone relates to ideas such as "bringing in energy," etc. A much better preparation for reading the material of this website would be to first read John Taylor Gatto's latest book: The Underground History of American Education (Oxford Village Press). Mr. Gatto has (so far as I know) never heard of the Freetimea Project, but his book constitutes nonetheless the best single-source setup for understanding the "why" of the project that I have yet encountered. Great book. Worth reading.)
