Strength to Be Human by Mark Antony Rossi<br />

Loyal First Books, 2015 Kindle EBook Editions<br />

Review by Sy Albright<br />

Tackling the existential existence of humanity on a global scale would be a topic too<br />

large for even a War and Peace length volume, but Rossi’s Strength to Be Human<br />

manages to boil down his poignant distillations in less than fifty pages. Quite a feat when<br />

considering he neither dances around political opinions nor runs away from criticizing<br />

Science and Religion as potential negative elements that hold back humanity from its<br />

fullest potential.<br />

In “What We Learned” Rossi states: “We waste our time building the better machine<br />

rather than raising the better child. The sum of our species is naught if we simply carry<br />

our fear and hostility to the Cosmos?”<br />

This is the first time I have ever read a book that successfully pushes back on religious<br />

thought and science philosophy without calling for extreme measures or proposing to<br />

exchange one idiotic ideology for another. He plainly points out that religion and science<br />

are most dangerous to peaceful coexistence when allowed to lament on humanity’s lack<br />

of superhuman or supernatural powers. Powers he clearly shows are unwanted and<br />

unneeded.
