We hold these truths to be self-evident, that no man is an island, whole unto himself/herself.

Every person needs to feel safe to express his or her desires in as open and direct manner as is available.

Each person should be told what is expected of them, and what can be done in the case said expectations cannot be met.

Each person should be encouraged to pursue his or her own interests and given the tools necessary to do so.

The striving of each person is as important as the collective aim of all mankind.

We believe in a world which achieves its goals through the focused, deliberate behavior of determined agents.

Any person striving against another’s interest or aim should declare their reasons for doing so.

No person should secretly plot against another.

All motivation for action should be weighed against the public good, and all actors should be held responsible for behavior directly hostile to the betterment of one’s neighbors.

One should act with the mindful awareness of the impacts his or her actions could have on the other.

We are indebted to each other’s needs and desires for our very existence, as it is the movement of the commodity market which ensures our existence and this is dictated to a large extent by real human demands.

We are dependent on one another to use resources wisely and economically, bearing in mind that waste threatens the survival of our species.

Being the bearers of a legacy stretching back to the haze of pre-history, and an even longer biological chain of inheritance, we as humans, are dependent on each other for a collective understanding and appreciation of the world.

Without wasting time, we must acknowledge that it is in our best interest to act deliberately, without giddy outbursts of petulant exasperation, to solve the problems that our mutual dependence creates.

There is no alternative to the necessity of working together to understand and amend the dire circumstances of our existence.
