Woods says: I think what was significant in what Platt posted below is not the "dreaming" aspect. Dream all you want. It's the "coercion" part that we need to be concerned about. That's what's dangerous about any New World Order, Star Trekie, no nation-state or tribes world. We haven't even been able to sit down as a community, as a country, in our schools, and between nations and discuss morality and values. So if we can't talk about them and even whole-heartedly consider them in our actions, then it's same old SOM non-value, non-moral vacuum world. Nothing will really change except the bigger stick, more power and control.
Thank you for responding Woods, but maybe I haven't made myself clear Had you seen my response to Platt? I'm not suggesting this to happen overnight..I'm not even suggesting that this scenario *should* happen. What I am suggesting is that the MoQ provides us with a "rational" basis to argue for an improvement of the world we live in based on quality ( and not the size of our bank accounts). i.e. openness to respond to DQ when- and wherever needed. I am not making myself any illusions..I have been "around" for awhile. This will take a long time and education will play an important role in this process. So long as we recognise the need for discussion, call it "diplomacy" there is hope.
