Many individuals don't think twice, believing that varying beliefs and lifestyles add to universal potential and do not detract from individual value. And many of these individuals are changed by this, becoming more tolerant and empathic by listening to, and making an effort to understand, diverse opinions.

Yet some individuals are so strongly entrenched in their beliefs that any difference of opinion does lessen the perceived value and potential of another equally necessary individual. And some of these individuals have difficulty processing the concept of a universal potential.

I would like to travel back in 50 year increments, for at least 3,000 years, to ask the questions above and to track how we have changed.

I would like to travel forward in 50 year increments, for as long as there remains a species of humanity, to ask the questions above and see where we are going.

I believe that focus on the individual discredits a universal outlook.

I believe that individual identity is (to varying degrees) molded by group association.

I believe that group formation---and as a result, group divisiveness---is dependent upon a focus on the individual and their perceived identity.

I believe that group divisiveness will, (seemingly unhurriedly, but nonetheless ultimately), lead to drastic and dire circumstance.

I believe that an increasingly substantial universal outlook may mitigate circumstance.

I believe, (with a very high degree of certainty), that the individual will not survive an extinction of the species.
