18th May is Bertrand Russell’s birthday. Philosopher, logician, mathematician, pacifist, and prolific author, dear Bertie has always been one of my favourite philosophers.
Here’s Russell’s message to humanity. Send him a birthday message back.
Happy birthday, dear Bertie.

Wise words, distilled from the video interview with Bertie
His message to future generations (that would now be us) on philosophical and moral grounds in this video remains important … and yet, looking at the rhetorical and political landscape of today, too often falls on deaf ears.

Happy birthday, dear Bertie
"And if we are to live together and not to die together, we must learn a kind of charity and a kind of tolerance, which is absolutely vital to the continuation of human life on this planet."
