Jone Johnson Lewis, NoVES Leader, will address the t= endency in our modern society to look for the "quick fix" to solutions, oft= en at the cost of finding a solution that will actually work. Whether we'= re talking about personal or interpersonal life, work or politics and socia= l change work, Jone looks at alternatives to jumping in to fix something ri= ght away.

Sometimes the term is d= efined broadly to include justice for future generations and non-human spec= ies=E2=80=94but even then, does it cover everything worth striving for? In = this platform, Perry Beider,=C2=A0 president of the Washington Ethical Soci= ety, will argue that the ideal society envisioned in Ethical Culture depend= s critically on social justice, but encompasses other ethical goals as well= . Our work for justice may be more coherent, and perhaps even more effectiv= e, if we recognize the broader whole of which it is a part.

To say that its founder, Dr Felix Adler, = plucked out the supernatural and substituted ethics in its place is accurat= e but not satisfying. How does that inform and animate our daily lives? How= does it lend meaning to our existence?
