People who do good in the world are so often chastised for it. Why? Hung - Burnt -Jailed- Murdered...... What does this say for humanity?

Because a lot of people mistake a nice person as someone who is weak and gullible, which I don't believe is the case much of the time. If you act like an ******, people know they can't just walk all over you. But, if you're nice, people with the wrong intentions think that's a green light for taking advantage, or trying to anyway.

Because we hope for the best in people no matter how many times it bites us in the @$$.
As for humanity......or humankind......we are screwed. It is all gonna fall apart soon and those left are gonna have one hell of a mess to deal with.
