Our population and our use of the finite resources of planet Earth are growing exponentially, along with our technical ability to change the environment for good or ill. But our genetic code still carries the selfish and aggressive instincts that were of survival advantage in the past.

Our only chance of long term survival, is not to remain inward looking on planet Earth, but to spread out into space.

Most sets of values would give rise to universes that, although they might be very beautiful, would contain no one able to wonder at that beauty.
