Generally I think people are self centered and selfish. I also think education and exposure to the world brings us out of our selves generally.
I have hope. I am not negative on this question. The reason is that it is in the interest of self to be educated and exposed to the world. I think the further along our democracies go, the better off the world will be. There will always be problems to overcome that does not necessarily mean we will erraticate each other.
For two decades in Church all I ever heard was how evil the world is and how humanity is fallen. I have grown to dispise those lies. There is proof all around that humanity transends nature and circumstance. I really think as long as democracy survives and education is held in high esteem, we will continue to overcome obstacles.
