I'm afraid I do not share your nihilistic viewpoint. Free men, through
free 
enterprise and free expression have accomplished more FOR humanity in the 
last century than was accomplished by all the dogma-restricted centuries 
after the Roman Empire collapsed.

I'm personally sorry for anyone that looks at the glass of human 
accomplishment and sees it 20% empty rather than 80% full.
