Truth is a multi-facetted diamond. Important aesthetic, moral, ethical, social, economic, political, legal, cultural and religious questions may be raised vis-à-vis several aspects and dimensions of the contents and structure of the Neith Network Library on-line I+N Creativity House. Love is the crucially decisive question. How best to promote the authentic growth of the Human Good? Problems are seldom solved by hiding dust under a carpet. Enlightenment brings lightness of heart, levity. Nurturing and nourishing individual personal freedom is here our chief aim and intent.
