I keep seeing and hearing cynics sigh about how far we have “fallen.” The disease is rampant, on both right and left: “Isn’t it a shame that our wisdom has not kept pace with technology?” This nonsense is spouted amid the greatest transformation of diversity, inclusion, acceptance, re-evaluation and tolerance in the history of our species! At no other time were so many hoary/awful assumptions – about race-gender and so on – pilloried by light and scrutiny! And if that is not ADVANCEMENT of our souls, I do not know what would be.
