Reflections on Creation

Thomas Berry, Catholic priest and ecological philosopher: "...we might summarize our present human situation by the simple statement: In the 20th century, the glory of the human has become the desolation of the Earth. And now, the desolation of the Earth is becoming the destiny of the human. From here on, the primary judgement of all human institutions, professions and programs and activities will be determined by the extent to which they inhibit, ignore, or foster a mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship."

James Lovelock, scientist: "Civilization in its present form hasn't got long."

Margaret Mead, anthropologist: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful , committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
