“If you complain of people being shot down in the streets, of the absence of communication or social responsibility, of the rise of everyday violence which people have become accustomed to, and the dehumanization of feelings, then the ultimate development on an organized social level is the concentration camp... The concentration camp is the final expression of human separateness and its ultimate consequence. It is organized abandonment.” PeopleIfsHumansFeelingsSocialLevelsResponsibilityViolenceStreetsExpressionCommunicationDevelopmentShotsConsequenceUltimateEverydayFinalsAbsenceComplainingOrganizedConcentrationCampsSocial ResponsibilityAccustomedAbandonmentConcentration CampSeparatenessDehumanization Author:Arthur Miller
“Wars results in immediate deaths and destruction, but the environmental consequences can last hundreds, often thousands of years. And it is not just war itself that undermines our life support system, but also the research and development, military exercises and general preparations for battle that are carried out on a daily basis in most parts of the world. The majority of this pre-war activity takes place without the benefit of civilian scrutiny and therefore we are unaware of some of what is being done to our environment in the name of 'security.” WorldYearsWarDoneLastsNamesResultsSupportEnvironmentOur LivesSecurityMilitaryDevelopmentExerciseBattleActivityBenefitsResearchConsequenceDestructionBasesMajorityEnvironmentalPreparationCiviliansOur EnvironmentScrutinyBeing DoneResearch And DevelopmentSupport SystemsJust War Book:Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War Source: Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War
“Concern for the fate of the great rivers of the earth must lead us to reflect soberly on the model of development which our society is pursuing.

“While the rich reap most of the benefits of technological development, the poor bear an unequal burden of dealing with the consequences of the resulting increased pollution. The poor continue to live in greatest proximity to the sources of pollution, the infrastructure and machinery of industry. They work in the most polluted and physically dangerous workplaces. And these same individuals, living and working closest to the sources of environmental catastrophe, are also the ones most lacking decent health care.” CareIndividualPoorRichDangerousSourceDevelopmentIndustryBearsBenefitsConsequenceEnvironmentalBurdenHealth CareDecentPollutionClosestLackingTechnologicalWorkplaceCatastropheInfrastructureMachineryReapProximityTechnological Development Author:James H.

“Sensitivity to nature is not an innate attribute of indigenous peoples.

“The clearer and deeper the public opinion of the world, in the first instance the opinion of the working masses, will understand the contradictions and the difficulties of the socialist development of an isolated country, the higher will it appreciate the results achieved. The less it identifies the fundamental methods of Socialism with the zigzags and errors of the Soviet bureaucracy, the less will be the danger that, by the inevitable revelation of these errors and of their consequences, the authority, not only of the present ruling group, but of the workers' State itself, may decline.” WorldFirstsMayCountryStatesResultsOpinionGroupsDangerDevelopmentHigherAuthorityMassConsequenceAppreciateDifficultyMethodFundamentalsErrorsWorkersDeeperSocialismInstanceInevitableRevelationsContradictionSovietIsolatedDeclineSocialistBureaucracyRulingPublic Opinion Author:Leon Trotsky
“The Reformed tradition at the beginning of the twenty-first century is different as a consequence of this - and different in nontrivial ways. Some may scoff at this, saying that such "developments" don't represent Reformed thought. But by what standard? Perhaps by the Westminster Confession. But this is only one Reformed confession, and it was only ever a subordinate standard.” WayFirstsMayDifferentCenturyDevelopmentStandardsConsequenceTraditionTwentiesConfessionSubordinatesWestminster Author:Oliver D.

“[E]very plot, worth the name, must be elaborated to its dénouement before anything be attempted with the pen.
