I find it funny that you think in hundreds of years we are not going to be greedy or barbaric. It is basically hardwired into the human condition.

Completely agree but don't think that changes the likelihood of future generations looking back shamefully. They'll look back just as we do and say "at least we don't do that anymore". They'll be hypocrites, but it doesn't mean they'll be wrong about us.
