Like the Holy Trinity known from the Scriptures, the challenge which humanity is currently facing and which, once complemented by the responses it may eventually evoke or fail to evoke, is bound to shape the future of the planet, is triple yet triune ("three in one", or "both three and one at the same time"). It is made of three parts: interregnum, uncertainty and institutional disparity; yet each part conditions the other two, while being inseparable from them.
