Machines can Always be Improved, but People Cannot

I am constantly amazed by how much the Computer is being improved on. And constantly amazed by how People cannot be improved on.

I hope you disagree with me, and are working to make some human situations better. But if you are, you probably agree with me - that our human operating system has plenty of bugs in it. I am using some computer concepts here - but they may be useful, in the larger context.

And we have to start with our serious inadequacies, that cannot be removed. All we can do is work around them.

This has been done - with the formation of the United States of America. And hundreds of attempts have been made to emulate this success. Most recently, with the European Union (EU) that has been plagued with problems.

The US and the UK have also been plagued with problems.

And the basic problem, it seems to me - is that we think we are basically good (made in the image of God) when we are a complicated mixture of good and bad. A very complicated mixture.

You probably agree - but prefer concentrating on our good parts. When we should be concentrating on our bad parts - and really concentrating on them. They are what is holding us back - not our good parts.
