That would depend entirely on what we decide our own purpose to be, yes? If our purpose were selfish, sure - I can see that. But if our purpose were to make the world a better place, then not so much.
Yes to make the world a better place sounds great, but really we only want a better place for ourselves, we really don't give a shit for anyone else.
