Somebody stop these people. Please.


Labeling human beings is dangerous, closed minded and anything BUT spiritual. This is human psychological devolution, not evolution.

What's next? They're going to say that these "new, spiritually enlightened children" are a master race? Superior to other children?

Don't kid yourselves, that's what these people want - to segregate a small percentage of "special" children by telling them that they're more spiritually aware than others. That has to be the most psychologically damaging approach to child raising created in a long, long time. And this concept that these special kids are only of this new generation, that there have never been any children this advanced before, is the most arrogant and laughable idea of all.

Please. I can think of some very spiritually advanced kids throughout history. How about Anne Frank? And Mozart was playing piano perfectly at three years old. So tell me, weren't they special? Were they "Indigo?" Does anyone else think that labeling kids with a COLOR is a little scary?

See this for what it is, which is more self-serving, righteous tripe from Neal Donald Walsch and his minions who believes he is the only guy on earth who is allowed to talk to God.

Give your money to a real children's charity instead. There are a lot of just plain old average kids who are starving to death and who need medical care.

If the upper-middle-class-new-age-mommys and daddys get their ego hit by believing they've given birth to the new messiahs, let 'em. But don't be suckered into it people.

It's a scam.

These children are not exactly "being" labeled, as far as I can tell, unless you are saying that everyone who defines themselves as something are "being" labeled. Gay people aren't labeled as being gay, they themselves come out as being labeled. It is part of their identity, just as it is for Indigo's. I am going to talk to a girl I know about this Indigo child movement because I think she might be an Indigo, and I think she will be very open to the idea because she is very spiritual, not at all in a Christian way, far from it, but in a just...spiritual way. Also, how you are saying it is a scam and they are just making big bucks...um, ever heard of Billy Graham, the Christian televangelist tycoon? Maybe he's just spreading God's word, but he sure is making a bunch of money from it. Also, I find your narrow minded attitude a little offensive. I am New Age, and I am far from wealthy. I just think it is sad that people like you who are bashing the very idea of New Age/Indigo stuff are so close minded. How is it possible to look around you at everything and not see that everything is connected. Also, this movement is about spreading love and peace, whereas the Born-Again Christian movement, who are probably the biggest bashers of everything that does not agree with them, seem to be about spreading dogma, close mindedness, and general ignorance of everything they don't agree with. My father and his wife are born again, and I go to church with them, so I know what I am talking about. I don't hate people who don't agree with me, not at all, but I wish everyone could just except other people's views as different and respect them as such. Thanks!

Hey, hey! I'm a born again Christian who can accept people with psychic powers, aliens, ghosts, etc. To some extent, I wonder if a few mentally ill people are really just people who have some extrasensory perception that can tap into things, people or even creatures from another planet in a way we can't and they kind of go crazy with the ability! I just don't try to convince many people of my beliefs but affirm people who already have them and just need someone to talk to validate it. Labels can be both helpful and harmful. Labels can help you understand and can help you discriminate, judge and destroy.

What I was looking for in this movie, I didn't find. It was in the children's section and it was anything but a children's movie. It just featured a child as a main character. I've seen better movies and documentaries dealing with alternate realities. Plus, it dealt with very adult issues in an adult way, not in a child's way. For children's movies that deal with heavy issues appropriately for children, I'd recommend, "Fly Away Home", "Bridge to Terabithia", "Homecoming", "Shiloh" and a host of others. I was really disappointed in this movie and regretted showing it to my daughter who remarked that the girl was "weird". If this movie was trying to educate us about and empathize with "indigo" children, it didn't do it.

Es todo bueno!
