Most people have asked the question: Why is the world in such a mess? Whose fault is it? Why is there so much hatred, distrust, violence, corruption, crime and contamination? Can man solve the problems that we see around the world? What do you feel the future will bring?

Maybe because we are not sufficiently civilized to live in peace. Take for instance 9/11, that is not civilized; wars are not civilized, society in general in many countries still permits discrimination based on handicap, race, gender, etc. Just pick up the newspapers or watch TV and we see man's inhumanity to man. I think in the future we will solve many of the problems that exist today; however, we have to have the cooperation of the world.
