Hello Lamar
I'm a great fan of whatever works.
I'd prefer that the technique was based on sound principles, but like your gravity example, if it works but the principle is misunderstood that's not a critical issue.
All Geering is saying is that "WE" have to accept personal responsibility for what happens on planet Earth. I think you are doing that. I think I am doing that. Our personal motivations are quite different, but we both see that stronger communities and more cooperation is critical to the future.
I'm a strong advocate of the need for world government in many areas. Deliberately the United Nations is impeded from playing that role. The UN is kept crippled and dependent by the major world powers, because that makes them more powerful. Many of the major problems the planet Earth has are caused by a failure of government at a "whole planet" level. Plunder of the oceans, global warming, excessive population growth, many world-wide disease problems, much of the world's poverty, the ongoing issue of hunger, the ongoing refugee issue, all aspects of world trade, the weakness of the International Justice framework. None of these issues can be solved at a country level, in a global world.
