The High School Philosophy Website Project. In 1994 the Province of Ontario officially endorsed the teaching of philosophy to its youth. This Web site is intended as a resource for teachers and students of philosophy.
Earth Mysteries - Challenges. Many young people today are searching for meaning in their lives. For some, the search is expressed in their interest with mysteries ... the X-files ... aliens ... crop circles ... Others get involved in crystals, astrology or dream analysis. Students are rarely given the opportunity to explore these issues in a discerning way.
The mission of the Epic of Evolution Society is to activate a deep awareness of the evolutionary narrative of the universe, life, and humanity, so that we can identify our own roles in the Great Work of our time.
 

Dr. Brian Swimme is a mathematical cosmologist on the graduate faculty of the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco.

His primary field of research is the nature of the evolutionary dynamics of the universe. His central concern is the role of the human within the Earth community.
