Mission:
The American Teilhard Association
is dedicated to these objectives:
- A future worthy of the planet Earth
in the full splendor of its evolutionary emergence.
- A future worthy of the human community
as a reflexive expression of the earth's evolutionary process.
- A future worthy of the generations that
will succeed us.
Guided by the writings of Pierre Teilhard
de Chardin, the Association seeks to bring an encompassing perspective
to this great task of shaping the well-being of the entire earth
community, at a time when so many crises threaten it. Teilhard's
vision of the sequential evolution of the universe from its origin
to the human phenomenon can provide a firm and inspiring basis
upon which to proceed. Now, for the first time, humanity is converging
to a new unity in diversity that needs to be understood and facilitated.
To help in this work, the Association, since its foundation in
1967, has sponsored annual conferences, a monthly lecture series,
study groups, and a variety of publications.
