A Renaissance of Voluntary Ethics
The issues of genetic and nuclear technologies are frightening. These are powerful natural systems that have existed long before we began to notice them. It is the daily fascination and horror faced by man-kind: the power to re-shape the cradle of our own existence.
And what of the other side of our existence? What happens beyond the veil of spirit when we reassemble the building blocks? Does Gaia cry out in pain? Or does she beam in pride at our progress?
Friction between two great forces of intention creates heat; new truths are forged within. Fear is the first casualty of Truth.
Monsanto: people. Berkley: people. Bright minds in search of the best way. Peace, having no enemies, is achieved by inclusion.
This powerful technology and the implied possibilities it awakens reminds us that we are all connected; we are indeed, all One.

Sensitivity
>"From what I've heard, behavioral screening, where
>you're looking at things like tics and the way
>people are walking, is much more effective than
>the blanket screening we do now."It seems obvious to me that animals have a much easier time communicating and understanding without language. Language gives us higher learning, but blocks out our basic sensitivity. Even the untrained individual can read others' intentions without realising it - sometimes inventing reasons in the mind, but not understanding there is a deeper vision happening.
Our intuitive senses tell us who is dangerous, who means to do harm. Everyone knows a dog can "smell" fear - and animals probably detect other emotional vibrations, as well. Humans who study meditation and practice being "present" are able to go beyond fear, bias, and stereotype; they begin to return to a more basic kind of interpersonal exchange of understanding.
