    “Should we wonder that confusion about who we are and where we're going may well turn out to be the hallmark of our age?”

    I think that is something we should diligently examine, but fifty to a hundred years from now, historians who look back at those of us who lived in the last half of the 20th century will be vexed (pissed) about how we kept having wars, allowed so many to die from poverty, wasted so many natural resources, did hardly anything about world population growth and virtually ignored global warming.

    Is the confusion that you speak of one of the major causes of such supreme stupidity?
