'Equality' This is how we got there. If you have an interest in treating people with any degree of care, then unless you specify otherwise, I shall assume you view all humans as deserving of to be treated with a similar level of consideration.
Good - when I stand back and compare what we know of humanity before the last century, I see faltering progress. Whether it will continue, who knows. But I see possibilities, areas where progress can be made. You may argue it is all pointless as we cannot know what is progress and ultimately it all leads nowhere - to me that I bin in the irrelevant box, since I cannot know whether or not there is nowhere to go and the progress is just illusory.
