THE NEW SOCIAL CAUSE
Humanity Must Reckon

Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.
~Martin Luther King


WANTED: Philanthropists, humanitarians, social activists, leaders, any and all who are interested in promoting human welfare around the world - to vanquish the root cause of all social problems - Ignorance.

While there exists the need to administer immediate frontline assistance in areas of poverty, hunger, violence and disease, aid is too often limited to treatment rather than prevention and cure. Humanitarian aid needs a new "branch" that really should be at it's root - The Ministry of Intellectual Health or some such. Individuals are best liberated from their problems when they are able to solve or better yet, prevent their problems by being better thinkers. We are saying that there needs to be a force (no laws or thought police) in society which promotes and facilitates healthy thinking in the citizenry for the good of humanity. Mindvendor endeavors to enlist a community of "cognitive humanitarians" to get the ball rolling on this vital long-term solution.

This site will serve as a prompt for your consideration and action. The vision for Mindvendor's mission is too great for this one-woman show. Thus much is in the "forthcoming" stage; but in the meantime, I have erected the bare bones of this concept in the hope that you see the wisdom of building a movement which promotes a climate of duty and awareness of Intellectual Health. I welcome and urge your feedback.

A Word About Our Presence

Mindvendor is agnostic. We do not endorse or represent any particular world view or political party. Our main objective is doing what it takes to get people to think for themselves and to do it well. We offer no particular discipline or method. Our goal is to help people recognize the need and to help motivate a desire for the rewards of healthy thinking.

Mindvendor offers food for thought and mental workouts by way of selected links and forthcoming essays for starters. But the one feature of this site that I struggle with most is how best to encourage the involvement of your time toward raising consciousness for this nascent movement. I am looking for special people indeed, who understand the need and have the passion to drag this revolution into existence.

(((Stay Tuned )))

WHO WE ARE:
Mindvendor is the midwife for a thought revolution that will have the power to reduce the worlds’ social problems and will improve the well-being of humanity. Mindvendor heralds the message that universal peace and well-being depend on the intellectual fitness of individuals. Bad thinkers are a burden and a hazard to society. Better thinkers not only improve the quality of life for society, but they also do so for themselves. We aim to establish a strong social force, a movement that raises consciousness about the need to better cultivate in each of us the most powerful, awesome and enigmatic resource known - the human mind.

 

OUR PURPOSE:

to reduce the harm and hardship that ignorance and weak thinking causes to society

to be an agent of action because to fail to act is to contribute to the perpetuation of avoidable social tragedies

to help set conditions for the liberation of minds from the oppression of false beliefs

to better society by enabling the development of more problem solvers, innovators and visionaries

to promote an intelligence-friendly culture

WHAT WE BELIEVE:

that societies must actively support the development of high-order thinking in its citizenry

that most people do not sufficiently know their own thoughts and are ignorant of the effects of their thoughts and beliefs

that developing better thinking increases the selection of wiser life choices

that the increase of wise choice-making decreases burdens on self and society

better thinking promotes moral understanding

better thinking enables honest self-reflection, needed to create a healthy perspective on one’s life experience and to conduct healthy relationships

we need to practice more reflective thinking to understand the properties and powers of our thoughts and emotions if we are to command them wisely

healthy habits of thought protect against being deceived and manipulated by self-interested powers: government, media, religion, advertising, big business, medical establishment, entertainment industry, etc.
