GOVERNMENTS: Restoring a Sound Economy

Greece experienced it. Guatemala and the United States are experiencing it. When governments run up millions in debt, ballooning in money and power, the average citizen doesn’t object. Why should they? Who is stupid enough to turn down free money? But later, when the debts needed to be repaid, the attitude of the citizenry was […]

THE ENVIRONMENT: Melting of ice caps and glaciers

Ice is white. Ocean water is black. Black absorbs heat and sunlight, white reflects it. So when humans affect our climate by as little as a single Fahrenheit degree, we activate the multiplier effect of turning reflective white ice into heat-absorbing black ocean water. Does the Earth go through cycles of warming and cooling? Yes. […]

PEACE: Our Natural Human Design

Peace – one of those feel-good words. But do we even know what it means? Webster’s Dictionary doesn’t. It defines peace as the absence of conflict, but that’s like defining love as the absence of hate. Every living thing has conflict – that’s how we grow, learn, mature. Peace is more than the absence of […]

SUCCESSFUL/PREPARED YOUTH: The Purpose of Education

Look to nature to see how to raise the young. All species train and prepare their young with the skills to, first, survive, and hopefully to flourish. Some of the preparation is play. Other is the harder stuff – the risks, failures, attacks from predators, the uncertainties of weather, sometimes starvation. But more often than […]

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I JOIN?

Certainly we want peace, but what are the steps which will turn our direction from current society to living in peace? This is a very good question, one that many people have. We must start with the purpose or premise of A Return to Peace, which is that we must … return to peace! It […]

WORLD PEACE

Is World Peace possible? Of course it is. Anything is possible if we want it enough. But why aren’t we living in peace now. After all, we are the “intelligent” species, supposedly at the top of the food chain. So why are we hating, killing, destroying? The reason is that modern humans are not living […]

THE ENVIRONMENT: Protecting Earth and life on it

THE ENVIRONMENT: Protecting Earth and life on it All living things have a purpose – a niche. If the niche disappears, so does the species. Dinosaurs are but one example. Life on Earth is an amazing balance. Every living thing gives and takes. Every living thing has a purpose, although we may not understand what […]

HOW COULD PEOPLE GLOBALLY UNITE

HOW COULD PEOPLE GLOBALLY UNITE? We can achieve world peace if: People globally unite around a higher Vision; and We reach a critical mass of membership With these 2 items achieved, a Global Grassroots Movement will have begun and we will have acquired a voice. In essence, from a human standpoint it is our world, […]

THE ENVIRONMENT: Global Warming

Is the Earth getting hotter? Or colder? Are humans affecting the climate, altering temperatures by even a degree or 2? Do we have the right? Does our birthright give us license to alter and destroy? Are we living in conflict with each other, with Earth, and the rest of life on it? If you are […]

HOW CAN A RETURN TO PEACE STEM DRASTIC HUMAN OVER-POPULATION

Healthy, vibrant, successful species DO NOT OVER-POPULATE. They limit population size to the available land, food, water, etc. If they don’t, Mother Nature steps in, via weather, disease, predators, insufficient resources (land, food, water). This is true of all 10 million current plant and animal species living on Earth today. Humans today are NOT living […]
