Something I was thinking is that perhaps we should just turn the test into a kind of challenge for everyone 'when' they join rather than make it exclude membership until you can pass it. A lot of people do enjoy taking tests and it might even make them want to learn more so that they CAN pass it but being excluded from membership until you can pass does seem to have the potential to simply turn a lot of people away.

Interesting idea Pete.
Have a ZG Hug for it.

Oh ye huggers and lovers!

I am from Norway and I had to do the test at least 50 times, because some of the English articulation is really difficult or academic.

...damn that test took a toll on my ego... ^.^

Awww, poor Baldershymn...here's a ZG Hug just for your ego!

Wow 50 times....I would definitely have become fed up with the whole idea of joining the movement if I failed 50 times..... glad you didn't give up Baldershymn

Do you need to pass the test to become a member, or just to start posting in the forums??

I guess you are still a member as long as you agree with the idea, even if you can't pass the test and join the forum.

Most people will support their country without even understanding why..

And there is no doubt people support the monetary system without understanding it at all.

Thunder, are you kidding me? I come here with a concern and THAT"S the response you come up with? First of all when you are reading a response READ THE WHOLE THING. You shouldn't be trying to quash people's concerns with poltician tactics. Any dummy can see that of coarse it wasn't a "million" tries, it's stunning that I even have to address this with you. You don't have the right to try to put yourself in the same light so you can belittle me and use that to quash my concerns, you don't have dyslexia, you have politicianitis. The conflicting info I was talking about was when Peter joseph says that it isn't corruption to act in the manner that society lays out, but Jaque Fresco says it is corruption. when I've seen zeigeist info say that they are a "political movement" in written text. That had been the reason I answered the same way for a while and I couldn't change it because I didn't know what answers I got wrong.
The fact, alone that you responded with such a belittling and dismissive post is PROOF that elitism IS starting. You do not see your own elitism because you feel that you are right to defend a just cause. At first I said that it would be a knee-jerk reaction to get offended at the word tyrant so I will clarify, then wnet on to say that I DON`T think that there are any tyrants here but they will emerge if we don`t remember what we are fighting for. Your post makes me rethink the notion that there aren`t any tyrants here. And you being a moderator in this site makes me rethink the whole zeitgeist notion. But of coarse, I`m new here, and experienced enough to know that one person does not make the movement.

I guess trolls can't pass the test, so they send people to complain and to persuade moderators to remove the test. lol
I think that the test thing is a good choice because, really, it can only make people who can't pass it or the trolls who are against TZM and know nothing about its tenets, to review/view the materials and obtain more knowledge.
