"1) Justice stands at the head of the list
Justice which is the correct meaning of the Bible word "righteousness" and was demanded by the great Hebrew prophets, culminating in John the Baptist, crowned by Jesus. Every human being has the right, as a human being, to his just reward and to protection against unfair exploitation of his person. No man must be treated as mere tool for another man's use. No man must be deprived of proper human life and subsistence.
2) Freedom stands second.
Freedom from external restraint and freedom of opportunity ...
3) A creatively abundant personal life is the third demand: " I am come that they may have life and have it more abundantly (John 10,10) ..." The Dean of Canterburury "Act Now: An Appeal to The Mind and Heart of Britain" London, 1939, Victor Gollancz Ltd*
* The then Dean of Canterbury was (1931–1963) Hewlett Johnson
In the chapter Science declares ; it can be changed he says further "The riches of this age has never been realized, or poverty would die.
In this section I speak as one who holds an engineering degree as well as a degree in Divinity. I know that what Christianity demands as essential, science has made possible."
