I should like to see some evidence for that belief.

As far as I know as long as there have been humans, humans have been herd animals with a great fear of 'others'. We have always been territorial and violent. Our fight or flight instinct is still as strong today as it ever has been.

I grant that our technology has advanced but has our morality? We build power plants that are inherently dangerous. We have weapons of mass destruction. Show me a country where the majority of people do not need stimulants that, to a greater or lesser degree change reality to get through the day.

When might this evolution you proclaim start?
