kvnchrist Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I was thinking about the history of humanity. Not what we've accomplished but what we are inside. Are we basically any more mature as far as facing the world as we were 1000 years ago. Have our toys, our cities, our science and knowledge made us any better as being human inside, or have they just elevated our arrogance and egos. Do we not, still fear that we don't understand. Do we not dehumanize those that we make war upon, in order to justify our own behavior. Do we still covet that which is not ours, envy what others have created and demand by the right of might. Could someone, in the future, look back at our world today and see the same savagery in the today's society that we had back in 1000 A.D Is the only difference in the tools we use.

The average man does not live in a cave. The average man does not kill others for their possessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
