People of the world have lives so much better than ever before. In general, people are healthier. More people live under democracy despite movements to return to authoritarian rule. Most people have electricity, heat, mobile phones (those led to an increase in literacy among other things).
And yet, our 24-hour breathless news cycle leads people, especially in the USA but other places as well, to believe that they are worse off. Indeed, there remain too many places where anger and fear drive terrorist attacks, wars, killings.
Can peace exist without justice?
Justice without humility?
Humility without faith?
Reduction of anger and fear without living a with-God life. Recognizing others as God’s children?
We need fewer driven, successful entrepreneurs and politicians. We need more people practicing kindness, justice, and, yes, love.
