PRINCIPLES
1 PRINCIPLE OF UNITY
"The Commonalty of Humankind"
1.1
Given the First and Second Axioms, there is no perfect example or original model of the human species.
1.2
Given the Principle 1.1 and the Second and Third Axioms, the future form of humankind and its society is neither determined nor predictable.
1.3
Given the Principles 1.1 and 1.2, no present judgement can be made as to the relative value, worth or consequences of any of the differences found between the varieties of the human species.
2 PRINCIPLE OF PEACE
"The Sanctity of Human Life"
2.1
Given the Second and Third Axioms, no prediction can be made of the knowledge, skills or abilities which the human species will require or must develop in order to achieve the Objective of the Dogma.
2.2
Given the Principle 2.1, a necessary consequence of the choice of the Objective of the Dogma is that all individual members of the human species, whatever their qualities or characteristics, are equally valuable and equally worthy of preservation and development.
2.3
The better general observation of the Principle 2.2 is the only justification for a specific breach of it, a conclusion which, to the extent that it is a factor in the Principle 2.1., applies to the whole of the environment of humanity as well as to all sentient life within it.
3
PRINCIPLE OF PROGRESS
"The Mutuality of Humanity"
3.1
Given the First and Third Axioms, the co-operation and assistance of other members of the human species is the only resource available if an objective that cannot be achieved by any single individual is chosen.
3.2
To the extent that its Conditions are subject to the Principle 3.1, choice of the Dogma necessarily implies assent to the social order required to achieve its Objective.
3.3
The effect of the Principle 3.2 on the conclusion of the Principle 3.1 is that any form of social order that is consistent with the maintenance of the Conditions of the Dogma is permissible.
