We, as planetary citizens of the universe and Evolutioneers stand at a critical moment in the history of the universe and of this planet. This is a time when humanity must choose its future. As this planet becomes increasingly inter-dependent, the future at once holds great peril and great promise. To move forward we must recognize that in the midst of a magnificent diversity of cultures and life forms we are one human, planetary and universe family with a common destiny. We must join together to bring forth a sustainable planetary society founded on the testable principles of the universe's progressive evolution and respect for nature, universal human rights, economic justice, universal human responsibilities and a culture of peace. Towards this end, it is imperative that we, the people of the universe and this planet Earth, declare our responsibility to one another, to the greater universe community of life, and to the future generations who will inhabit both the planet and beyond it into the Universe. To this end, we present a new Universe Charter to help map out the path that we must all walk together.
People fight passionately for their human rights, but these rights also have their corresponding and equally important responsibilities. This quiz and article is the responsibility-side companion to the rights defined in the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights. As you review it, you may find yourself repeatedly surprised by the integral and evolutionary perspectives held within every true planetary and universe citizen's social and spiritual responsibilities.
Not only was the observation of the universe the source of the first spirituality and religion, it is also the source of our oldest spiritual and religious practices. Because of the re-integration of today's cutting-edge sciences (particularly evolutionary sciences,) the master and meta-frame of our evolving universe has once again become a "new," common and omni-denominational objectivesource for both re-aligning and expanding personalized spiritual practice and for revitalizing existing religions.
The universe's own evolutionary process is now doing what no religion on the planet has previously been able to do --- namely to evolve an objective, personal and universe-grounded meta-spirituality and new moral and ethical within the new Evolution Spirituality (AKA Universe Spirituality or Universe Evolution Spirituality.) Evolution Spirituality uniquely balances and integrates humanity's current sciences with humanity's most life-affirming heritage of spiritual wisdom.
"A religion that stressed the magnificence of the universe as revealed by modern science, might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by traditional faiths. Sooner or later, such a religion will emerge." Carl Sagan
