Young World (1)

RBF Definitions

"The young people see that we cannot correct such negatives as air

and water pollution by local means for, obviously, the air and

water flow everywhere around our planet and affect everybody

and thus, if anything may 'belong' to anybody, they realize that

the spaceship Earth's prime resources belong to everybody.

"The young people see clearly that we cannot control our

environment until we gain enough confidence both in ourselves

and others to permit us to use both our physical resources and

our higher faculties to induce each one of us to deal as

intelligently with all the world and all people as we would with

our most trusted and beloved friends.

"To be able to coordinate and take the initiative, the TV

generation see that they must face up to these facts of the

organic omni-interdependence of our whole spaceship Earth's

component resources and people.

"The young feel the older ones are no longer capable of such

realistic farsightedness. The older generation has been

frustrated too long. It is too slavish and lacks fundamental

confidence that technoscientific innovations can be made to

work and that man can be both physically and metaphysically"
