Hi, Glenn
'zeitgeist' == spirit of the age [lit. time-spirit]
so yeah, what I was saying is that culture no longer believes in cultural values...
I don't think that is is as contradictory as it sounds - it's just not necessarily a *Good Thing*l.
In a biological context it's probably similar to what happens to when one's cells no longer
'believe' in the greater corporeal good.

Hamish
