A Crisis of Faith and Love — Philip Berrigan

We continue to plunge into the mysteries of nature. Yet we have not learned how to understand and love one another even to the minimal degree demanded by our survival. And so our crisis is not that caused by the atom or cybernetics, or Cold War—it is rather one of faith and love. And so we must learn to resolve this crisis, or science fiction may become true in our regard, as we leave to inhabit another planet, while we leave this one in flames. — Philip Berrigan (Fighting the Lamb’s War: Skirmishes with the American Empire, p. 74)
