Amazing how virtually every single culture in the world has been cursed with the ugly practice of slavery... one would've thought that by now we would've learnt to treat one another as the valuable and unique humans that we are. But no, dehumanizing our neighbor to justify the abuse we inflict is deeply ingrained in our selfish nature.

Thousands of years of "civilization" have not changed the most fundamental facts about human nature.

 

Curious how many accidental fired have occurred elsewhere.

In 1996 Purdue University President Steven C. Beering referred to Mead’s viewpoint in his commencement address. The newspaper account misspelled “Mead” as “Meade”:

Beering recounted a story how anthropologist Margaret Meade responded when a student asked how she knew when an ancient culture had become civilized.
“You might think, as that student did, that the answer would be the discovery of a bit of pottery, or a tool, or a sign of the development of agriculture,” Beering said. “But Dr. Meade had a surprising response. She said she knew that an ancient people had reached the point of becoming a true society whenever she found a healed femur.”
“In other words, the first step to civilization is an act of human compassion, and it becomes the foundation to all the great achievements of humankind.”

Studying the genetics and evolution of dogs' friendliness

​

Williams Syndrome is a lifelong condition that often causes serious medical problems and intellectual disabilities. Ben's mom Terry Monkaba says Ben, and others like him, are so trusting and friendly they can sometimes be taken advantage of.

Survival of the friendliest, a successful evolutionary strategy many humans today would be wise to remember.
