i don't speak of any new kind of people, just the same old people being allowed to develop in a new way. . . i.e. without placing social stumbling blocks before them.
i think there might be a semantic issue impeding our discussion. humans are purely social creatures, and therefor i consider the evolution of society no different from the evolution of our species. homo sapiens did not evolve to dominate the world. it took groups of homo sapiens working together through a social structure to achieve the level of development that led to our present circumstance. despite this circumstance being a world away from the those our ancestors faced, much of that original structure remains the same. this is why there are so many examples of tradition conflicting with reality. these social relics are like atavist genes carried through the generations. we would do well to rid ourselves of them imo.
