“The Age of Nations is past. The task before us now, if we would not perish, is to build the Earth."
—Father Teilhard de Chardin
Build and grow with the earth, one neighborhood, one rural community, at a time. In quest of some kind of renaissance. Introducing this On-Line Magazine and Movement Resource, for Milwaukee first, but then for the Great Lakes cities, towns, and rural communities, and always, God willing, open to the wider world, all of God’s children.
I don’t think Father Chardin would have used the word “build” were he alive today. But it does make sense to imagine the many movements of our time would become more perfect, with a “richer and better organized material edifice.”
Father Chardin has also been stretching our minds beyond the here and now, all the way to the dawn of life and the end of time as we know it. His Phenomenon of Man has inspired a section devoted to evolutionary psychology as a source of insights valuable for our collective “evolutionary gropings” toward some kind of Milwaukee and Great Lkes “renaissance.”
