Good News Network
I think the press, including TV journalism, has an ethical responsibility, a
sacred responsibility, a service mission . . . to make good news just as
entertaining (as we’ve made sexy the violence).

Rather than breakdown and barbarism, 2012 will herald the birth of a regenerative planetary culture, where collaboration replaces competition, where exploration of psyche and spirit becomes the new cutting edge, replacing the sterile materialism that has pushed our world [...]

Posted in Web Sites, tagged extropy, humanity on May 20, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Perpetually overcoming constraints on our progress and possibilities. Expanding into the universe and advancing without end.

Beyond the humanists are the transhumanists.
