Today we have hindsight; just a few generations ago, where monarchy had ruled humanity from time immemorial, people where experimenting with philosophies – now we have hindsight, as to the effect of atheism, as to the effect of communism, as to the effect of democracy; the bottom line is, only one philosophy has withstood the test of time, in leading people to both spiritual and physical happiness, it is the path of Abraham: Trust in God and follow his commandments, and be preoccupied with goodness and kindness!
