After getting back into the world for the last few weeks, I realize the difficulty of the concept of raising the level of civilization. Progress doesn't come easy, and it is also not guaranteed to continue with the gains that have been made.
People are not that civilized. I see it every day.
Are people really just smart apes after all?
Civilization has outraced biology. Human beings may not be ready for the high tech living we now enjoy, nor for any further advances.
This is not in any way considering the Luddites as correct. I would prefer continued progress, but progress may not be easy against the headwinds that also exist.
