A Word for Today:
First we use the results after 60ky of development as basis to define our
responsibility as humanity.

Secondly we formulate our own human perspective on humanity's existence within
the totality of Existence Divine. [A Framework to accommodate humanity's
religions, philosophies and ideologies.] ___________________________________________________________________
