"The Torch is not affiliated to political parties or organizations of any kind. The magazine is published by a group of students from the universities of Aarhus and Copenhagen representing practically all subjects, from philosophy, classical philology and psychology to physics, biology and mathematics. "We wish to expose ­ nationally and internationally ­the increasingly racist Denmark as well as the dangerous slide from the constitutional state to the police state. We believe that a humanist counteroffensive is needed ­ a couteroffensive which must have a solid foundation in science and cultural history if it is to become something more than mere attractive slogans with no particular impact."
