MESSAGES

by Stephen C. Rose

Messages are the future of change. Messages are utterly key to framing a way of thinking that moves past harm toward good. Harm is evil. It is that simple. The answer is a world based on universal tolerance, helpfulness and democracy. We need a world without idolatry of any sort. To create it we need to know the maxims and thoughts that compose a bridge to a better future. The treasury below is a starting point. Read them and create your own messages to help amplify what I call the revolution of silence. Messages that are simple, direct and truthful need not scream. By spreading them, we get to a tipping point where truth and beauty are more and more visible.
