Comments on opinions-humanity

Buckminster Fuller said (I paraphrase it here) that every baby comes into the world destined to be a genius but society and schooling ensures that most of us turn out to be mediocre conformists.

There is hope, though. Humankind is a very young species, hardly an adolescent, and 99.9 per cent of its life is in the future.
