To Michael K. and all,

Thanks for the invite to the International Group.

Here is what I see and is most ultimately important to keep in mind as things go forward with Global Governance Issues as it applies to what we have previously known as the International World. As our civilizations overall planetary and global issues take more and more precedent over any singular National or Nation State need toward parochial self interest given that over time as the world’s population shall by way of time itself blend across today’s national and cultural boundaries it is important to see those national and cultural identities as something vital to maintain for the future health of our species even if national or cultural boundaries fade completely out of existence. And why do I say this? Just the same as bio diversity is healthy to maintain the health and physical well being of a biological system (humans in this case) so also on an equal social/spiritual level does national and cultural diversity maintain the health and emotional well being of said biological system (humans in this case). It is called adding to the spice of life as we now begin to look ahead across the countless millenniums to come as a species growing up in our universe it is vital to maintain this spice of life codified across the thousands of generations to come as a species. This will renew and maintain the emotional health of our species in its creativity and its ultimate zeal for life. Let us not forget this as we precede ahead people over the next few generations there is a lot at stake for the very future of our species itself.

Catch you later,

Randy

I'll second that, Randy, and unless I am much mistaken, you will find that the great majority of those who are looking for human unity are also thinking in terms of maintaining diversity.  The other great group are those who want to dominate the earth and who also want to atomize the people and create uniformity.  These people believe it is us vs them, and "we" had better win. 

It is such a paradox - hard for the unity-and-diversity folks to deal with, that it is unity-and-diversity vs us-vs-them.  I am expecting the "we" will win this one!
