I think you missed a couple of things: 1. Mathematics does fight child abuse. Statistics and analsysis provide insight and understanding into a problem and the outcomes of working with it. Look at the NHS' HSCIC for example which actually looks for this sort of thing: http://www.hscic.gov.uk/ http://www.hscic.gov.uk/ 2. Art does indeed fight despots overseas. Look at modern propaganda and the Eastern Bloc socialist and communist art for example. Then there's music and ceremonyl; both arts as well. Even typography foundries are enlisted. It's all glued together at the core, inseparable from morals which emerges from psychology which is a science, ultimately constrained by mathematics. Do it because you like it, but it's everything so you can't lose.
