---

In religio-mystical circles one meets from time to time those who believe they have a mission either to establish some utopian colony, community, or settlement, or to bring about a certain transition to peace on earth and goodwill unto all. Such visionaries usually fail to produce much practical consequence of their visions. No great change can be brought about in human history without first bringing about a great change in human nature: but lesser changes can be achieved.
