The  lack  of  organization  is  abused  and  creates  conditions  for
        wars,  terrorism,  rape,  unemployment,  crime,  destruction  of

        historic cities and various other depravities. We are used to the
        fact that a small number of people owns almost the entire capital

        on  the  planet and  we  consider it normal  and  natural.  A person

        believes his/her own religion and disqualifies other religions. The
        people  in  future  will  have  to  learn  to  coexist  and  respect  other

        people and communities.

        Morality, as a system of values for the members of a society, has

        been disregarded for various reasons, subjective and objective.

        Everybody in the world knows what is good or bad, but there are
        reasons why a person is driven to do evil.


        A  hungry  wolf  attacks.  Can  a  person  born  in  underprivileged
        circumstances,  with  little  or  no  chances  to  become  well-off,  be

        moral?  Moral  feelings  and  their  choice  depend  on  the  social

        relationships in a given period of time. The choice of good or evil
        does  not  depend  on  the  moral  feelings  but  on  the  social

        relationships.  There  are  exceptions,  virtuous  people  who  live
        ethical lives in spite of their poverty, but they are few.


        In the whole, the situation will be reversed. When feelings follow

        a common interest, there is respect and trust.
