>looking at the history of the human race, it seems unlikely we'll ever "fix ourself". I disagree. We're barely a couple thousand years away from mass crucifixion as a legitimate punishment by civilizations that were considered advanced for their time. We're only a couple hundred years away from legitimized slavery as the norm. There are probably some human flaws that will never go away unless we deliberately engineer them from our biology. Even so, if you look at history there's been a massive trend towards improvement. Even if our flaws today seem insurmountable, I think history shows a solid track record of improvement.
