It would appear we have some pretty deep disagreements about what makes an advance in the human condition.
Let me see if I understand your positions so we can continue to talk about this:
- There are few true improvements in the world, and we were just as well off in caves.
- Nations become powerful by chance - or worse.
- Commerce is meaningless by definition.
- Most modern human activity is a waste of time and most human choices incorrect.
- If people want to kill you, you can convince them not to by establishing a caring and non-violent society.
Help me out here by clarifying. thx
