Dr. Cliff Johannsen, Ph.D. Woodbury Reports, #66, Mar 00 |
Society is composed of persons who cannot design, build, repair
or even operate most of the devices upon which their lives depend...In the complexity of this world people are confronted with
extraordinary events and functions that are literally unintelligible to them. They are unable to give an adequate explanation
of man-made phenomena in their immediate experience. They are unable to form a coherent, rational picture of the whole. Under
the circumstances, all persons do, and indeed must, accept a great number of things on faith...Their way of understanding is basically
religious, rather than scientific...

to find a necessity and direction for its existence, in order that its life many become a serious matter.
W.H. Auden |
There are certain fundamental requisites for wise and resolute democratic
leadership. It must build on hope, not on fear; on honesty, not on falsehood; on justice, not on injustice; on public tranquility,
not on violence; on freedom, not on enslavement.

Find me a child that is not properly disciplined and I will show
