I can't find much with which to disagree in your post.
Personally, I have been looking closely at the evolution of ideas and
as, a consequence, the "supposed" evolution of "good". It used to be
my belief that the world and its people are better off today in terms
of compassion than it has ever been in history. If one looks closely
though, one might come to a different conclusion.
There have always been people who rebelled against the status quo.
There have always been people who waged wars to maintain the status
quo. How much has changed? I guess we will never know.
Presently, we are engaged in a war of words and demonstrations
against China in favor of Tibet. So much so that the Olympics are the
focus of violent demonstrations. Are the followers asking serious
questions about what they are following? Or, is the attention of
Richard Gere and Mia Farrow enough to negate any questions?
No country is all good or all bad.

What is troubling is how little research we undertake to examine the
other's cause and, more important, how closed our eyes/hearts are
when we see something with which we do not agree.
Thank you for your response. It got me thinking again... *smiles*
and that's bad!
