I think I would stop at the "one human family" for basic statements -
broader perspectives could be explored better by longer articles written
by members, don't you think?  They need not be long, but they could be
varied.

Again, I would see this as subject matter for members to write about -
in Rudy's still present Web page he has a section for contributions by
members, but so far mine is still the only one to which there is a link.
He has left TI with no explanation, but left the Web page with its
solitary link.  Very puzzling.
