I wonder if it's possible. Just when you think that some people are your true friends, you find out that they really don't like you all that much if they can't use you or control you any more. You would think 50 years would be long enough to evaluate someone's sincerity and intentions.
Unfortunately, there is little chance we can survive as manUNkind, unless we are plunged back into another terrible age of darkness. Perhaps if we all mutate into a kinder form at the same time, survival of manKIND could stand a chance.

No. It's contrary to the principle of evolution through competing with the nearest neighbor, surviving of the fittest, war and conquer. And when a dynasty finally evolves strong, it's eaten from the inside by the same principles and forces which made it possible for it to evolve. The wise man is gentle. The brute destroys to steal. Greed rules over all else. For man to conquer that all brutes must become wise.

Good & evil exists in all but there's been glimpses by some extraordinary individuals yet it would appear that kindness is somewhat veiled. I suppose it all goes back to Cain & Abel .... brother against brother

Self absorbtion and selfishness. Too many people are too concerned with themselves to care about other people or issues that surround them.
The world will always have negativity. It gives it balance. .

i dont think so - i think we are too 'nearsighted' that is we only care about those things/times/people that are near to us. not many are thinking about 200 years into the future, much less recognizing that other opinions are valid too.
