Science Has Brought Forth This Danger, But

It Must Be Conceded That A Theory Has An Important Advantage If Its Basic Concepts And Fundamental Hypotheses Are 'close To Experience,' And Greater Confidence In Such A Theory Is Certainly Justified. There Is Less Danger Of Going Completely Astray, Particularly Since It Takes So Much Less Time And Effort To Disprove Such Theories By Experience. Yet More And More, As The Depth Of Our Knowledge Increases, We Must Give Up This Advantage In Our Quest For Logical Simplicity In The Foundations Of Physical Theory.

I Recently Discussed With An Intelligent And Well-disposed Man The Threat Of Another War, Which In My Opinion Would Seriously Endanger The Existence Of Mankind, And I Remarked That Only A Supranational Organization Would Offer Protection From That Danger.

Modern Education Is Competitive, Nationalistic And Separative. It Has Trained The Child To Regard Material Values As Of Major Importance, To Believe That His Nation Is Also Of Major Importance And Superior To Other Nations And Peoples. The General Level Of World Information Is High But Usually Biased, Influenced By National Prejudices, Serving To Make Us Citizens Of Our Nation But Not Of The World.

The Effort To Strive For Truth Has To Precede All Other Efforts.
