What have we become?

Millions of years of evolution and what have we become? We have managed to achieve consciousness and become the superior species above others, we have created great civilisations and made great discoveries, we have unlocked many secrets to the mysteries of the world and plumbed the creative side of humanity to bring forth beautiful works of art and music...yet we have scarred this earth in a horrible manner, sucked it dry of its resources, it is groaning under the burden of humanity...we have waged war on each other, learned to distrust everyone and created governments and monetary systems that encourage evil behaviour and bring out the worst in humanity. Materialism, greed, power, fame, etc have become the primary objectives that many of us strive for. We have an endless list of mental and emotional disorders brought on by our ways and perverted elements that have become norms in society..what have we become? Yet most of us have an apathetic attitude and so do weep for humanity and dare we think of the inevitable fate that will eventually befall us...
