This is a question Racist grandparents

It Came From Planet Aylia says: "My husband's mad Auntie Joan accused the man seven doors down of stealing her milk as he was the first black neighbour she had. She doesn't even get her milk delivered." Tell us about casual racism from oldies.

Thanks to Brayn Dedd who suggested this too

You don't have to go outside this thread
to see examples of all the points you make.
As for your final question, I obviously don't think we can fully control our nature. My lead post postulates the opposite.
However my hope would be that evolution is still ongoing and if it is then I wonder what improvements are left. Unfortunately none of us can ever know the answer but wouldn't it be nice if our children could have brains powerful enough to understand our brains better and use this knowledge to improve everyone's lot?

I take your point.
I have a fairly low opinion of humanity and our expectation of a seat at the top table of evolution so I almost certainly don't give that evolutionary hope as much credence as I should I suppose. I tend to think of us all as an inconvenience to earth.that will in due course be deleted along with the sabre toothed tiger and the great auk.

Well if evolution finds us superfluous so be it.
Better start praying.

One irrational naively idealist argument per week for me is generally enough.
My puny brain can't deal with any more. Makes me want a cup of tea. Milk, sugar?
