I've spent a lot of time studying ancient Greece and Rome. The more I've learned about them the more I realized they had more wisdom than us in a lot of ways but also lacked wisdom just like us in a lot of ways. The similarities between us and the ancients is unmistakable though. We just have different technology. Anyone who thinks humanity has "evolved" or "progressed" compared to the past is sorely mistaken. We're exactly the same. All our problems are exactly the same.
Evolution is a very slow process, especially in long lived species with single offspring like us.
Very little is capable of changing about humans except for the environment we find ourselves in.
