Sounds and Silence: Creating Silent Space
(Pt. 2)

by Al Fritsch, S.J.
This special issue is meant to prepare the way for a longer study of noise pollution. This first section surveys sound pollution problems starting with volume and duration of modern sound. Discordant indoor sounds are described, and then the immediate outdoors (the yard and immediate environs), and then on to the larger surrounding communities in which we live. The physical, mental and psychological conditions of both people and other living creatures are touched upon.

Election of a new Democratic Congress in November has accelerated this thrust.

Towards An Authentic Eco-Spirituality
by Albert J. Fritsch, S.J.
In the first of two contributions, I challenge the position that "eco-spirituality" is automatically a good thing in itself. In fact, some types of limited spiritualities distract from the work needed to heal the Earth. Instead, we need an eco-spirituality that is authentic, which means that it has certain salient characteristics.

Beyond Simplicity: Tough Issues For A New Era
by Albert J. Fritsch, S.J.
In this second paper, I attempt to show possible ways to simplify our current culture and why various ones (catastrophe, revolution, and voluntary simplicity) are either harmful to the poor or are not fully effective in our present situation.
