how has the world changed??
Well instead of murdering people by throwing rocks at them for petty crimes like stealing a fruit for their children, we have wellfare
well instead of enslaving all women to do our deeds, they actually have rights now
well instead of an entire earth population of about 90 million, its around 6.5 billion
well we dont burn people on steaks anymore because we think they are witches
well instead of cutting rebels heads off, we just put them in jail or let them rebel.
well free speech is kinda useful nowadays
We have poverty now? true, but back then we had 100x more poverty, but instead of laying on the streets, these people were slaves and did the richer peoples biddings or built buildings.
Um standerd of living is more then 100x then it was for the average person 2000 years ago.
No monarchy kings and now instead of our leaders being born into it, we get a democracy of a whole two options.
Um mass genocide isnt as common anymore
Must I go on?
Basically my point is, yes there are problems, but 2000 years ago, there were WAAAAAAY more problems and WAAAY worst ones then now. You cant fix them all, thats impossible, not with 6.5 billion people to care for, thats just impossible.
Also without all this technology / stuff, most of us / all of us wouldnt even exist because the earth and human economy wouldnt be able to support such a large population, so YOUR existance is because of our system of life we live in.
Anyways fact is, things HAVE gone for the better, and not by a little, but by massive bounds and leaps, Its not perfect, and it never will be, because the system is HUMAN and HUMANS in general are stupid and careless, we cant fix that so we have to live with it.
Yes we can make a difference if we ALL work on it, but noone is going to.
Why?
because "humans in general are careless"
