: That would answer some of those questions. Since one tend's to believe no other alternatives may take the place of the existing order, promoting this is the only progress humanity will ever make.

It might be nutty, but the whole world is slowly shifting from really nutty ideas like 'worker's utopia's' and 'scientific man' to democracies based on Capitalism. Nobody is saying it is perfect, but just that it leaves no bodys in it's wake like Socialism/Communism.
