Our world is replete with varied societies, each with its own philosophies, conventions, traditions, and institutions. Each society, each culture proclaims its individuality, its differences, its distinctiveness, and concocts devices, legal or otherwise, to ensure they will last forever.

Mankind must come to realize that each individual is not a limited member of some isolated and narrowly defined group but rather a member of the people of the planet earth.
