A PRO-HUMAN JOURNAL
With this journal, we attempt to improve the quality of life for
this problematic human species.
It’s a
big job. We don’t know where to begin.
Frankly, we fear the powerful anti-human forces that prevail here
on Earth, and would prefer not to draw the attention of their
incendiary selves to our humble person.
Perhaps there is a way to find a voice and do as much of one’s duty
as one can without offending the antihuman powers. Perhaps to gently
criticize the bad and gracefully applaud the good. To say, “Good
job, you pro-human soul lights!” and, “Gee, you anti-human rascals
why don’t you please lighten up on the humans, if you don't mind.”
We want life. In our view, wars and political murders are
antithetical to a pro-human approach. The existence of a nuclear
bomb is antithetical to life.
And so forth.
The present world has strong anti-human forces. Against such forces,
we don’t know how to make manifest this pro-human reality.
The
best we can do is to offer to try to do at least some part of our
duty, as we see it, and to make the work an offering to God, and
letting God take care of the outcome.
Our
purpose is to take our place in the college of writers, in the
tradition of writers.
