I think that it is equally hard determining causes. We can clearly see differences between humans in the past and humans as we are today. Because humans are in the past, we easily think they are lesser and more stupid than our technological superior selves. But they didn’t have mass-produced cars and roads everywhere, so they didn’t die of weight-related heart failure. But labor was tougher, so perhaps those same men were getting drunk every night. Our former selves realized everyone should have a right toward education, but we barely teach the trivium, the education of a free man. Instead we have politicized our education instead of requiring students to read Plato because even our teachers haven’t read him.
