January 10 - World Economic Forum: Science Fiction Turned Reality
Article: One World Government
WEF founder Schwab
notes,
"The world today seems to be engulfed in a sea of
pessimism, negativity, and cynicism." Really? Could
it be the natural outcome of disingenuous and
destructive globalization in the first place? ⁃

As the past year has demonstrated, leaders must be
responsive to the demands of the people who have
entrusted them to lead, while also providing a
vision and a way forward, so that people can imagine
a better future.
True leadership in a complex, uncertain, and anxious
world requires leaders to navigate with both a radar
system and a compass. They must be receptive to
signals that are constantly arriving from an
ever-changing landscape, and they should be willing
to make necessary adjustments; but they must never
deviate from their true north, which is to say, a
strong vision based on authentic values.
That is why
the World Economic
Forum has made Responsive and Responsible Leadership
the theme for our annual January meeting in Davos.
As leaders in government, business, and civil
society chart a course for the next year, five key
challenges will warrant their attention.

January 9 - Is unity the most important thing to Pope Francis?
Article: One World Religion
Pope Francis has decided to
begin 2017 in much the same way as he did last year:
praying for Christian unity.
And it's this drive for unity - not only among Christians but
with other religions as well - that's emerged as sort-of
personal manifesto from practically the moment he took office.
In
his newest and first prayer video for the year, Pope Francis
prayed for Christian unity,
specifically "that all Christians may be faithful to the Lord's
teaching by striving with prayer and fraternal charity to
restore ecclesial communion and by collaborating to meet the
challenges facing humanity."
He closes his video asking
viewers
to "join your voice to mine in
praying for all who contribute through prayer and fraternal
charity to restoring full ecclesial communion in service of the
challenges facing humanity."
At the beginning of each year
the Pope's prayer intentions for the next 12 months are
released, showing topics he wants to draw attention to
throughout the year.
This year, Christian
unity is setting the tone.
