Confused Thinking

In the trend of drivel that passes for journalism, Jean Houston demonstrates lack of critical thinking and general confusion.  "The renaissance of spirit" is a new-age fluff article in the July 2012 issue of Ode magazine.

In the UCLA commencement speech videlo, Michael says "Accept the world for what it is."
