Absolutely correct, Manuel. They would take us back to cave man days if they could.
" Civilization is social order promoting cultural creation. Four elements constitute it: economic provision, political organization, moral traditions, and the pursuit of knowledge and the arts. It begins where chaos and insecurity end. For when fear is overcome, curiosity and constructiveness are free, and man passes by natural impulse towards the understanding and embellishment of life.

Thanks for your support, Lorraine.
Enjoyed reference to Durant and as always your reminder of joy
I am beginning Durant's volume on Greece. Fasten your seatbelt, Scott. 😎
Excellent questions!
Fifteen years ago, none of us could have ever imagined that we would be in this state of chaos and corruption - but here we are.
I concur, Velvet.
Humility will save us from ourselves.
