Wisdom Wednesday – The Emphatic Civilisation

This great video makes the case that we haven’t evolved to compete with each other but to empathize with one another.

I especially like how it builds the case of how our strongest connections grew from family relationships to tribes to religion-as-extended-family to nation-states-as-extended-family to the natural next step to a worldwide unity of purpose, facilitated by technology, as we drop away our artificial ties of religion and state.
