WE are all human beings living on planet earth and we need to start thinking like that if we are to survive as a species.

We humans face extinction from myriad dangers like nuclear proliferation, global warming, pandemics pollution, etc and we need to start thinking of ourselves as citizens of the world.

We don't need god powers to change things, we have our brains and newly discovered social science.

Do you consider the education of millions of children and especially girls, who had no education before a failure? Or the protection of those girls a failure?

Do you consider the establishment of a democracy and civil order where none had existed before a failure?

Do you consider the rise of a female professional class including 25% of women in politics a failure?

Do you consider the protection of millions of children and females a failure?

Not me, I saw them as a growing light in an area of the world living in a 13th century barbarian darkness.

Not my country, not my problem. I can not like things without feeling a compulsion to fix them. Besides, we DID try, or do something for 21 years. We failed.

If I had God-like powers would I change things? You bet!
