How to explain the twentieth century, the century into which I was born? The “century of crimes against humanity” is certainly how it will one day be known. Is it any wonder that so many who reached maturity in the sixties and early seventies wanted to chuck it all and start over again? In the twenty-first century, with our computers and our disillusionment, how much more harm will we capable of doing to each other!
We must seek a new Golden Age, which can only begin with a rejection of war, materialism, affluence, and intolerance. If we don’t, we may not survive at all.
