Every generation is absolutely sure that things were better in theirs, but even if we were to take your claim as true, it only goes back a certain length of time; once we get back to the point of theocratic violence- otherwise known as maximum god- things start to get worse.

Are you... are you seriously calling me an idiot for not taking into account an event that happened after I wrote my post?
Besides, if you're going to take a single event and then generalize that across the entire world, then today I performed some charitable actions, and therefore the world is infinitely better than it was in the past. Do you see how fucking dumb that sounds?
Boy, I'd hate to be the guy who made that argument in all seriousness!
Oh, wait...
