You beat me to it. I sure wish more people would follow this.
Carl Sagan had the best answer for that, and it was the everyone had the image of the pale blue dot planet earth taken from millions of miles in space in their heads. That's what humanity needs, that perspective. Many don't have it, and religious parochialism flows from it. I agree with Carl.

Absolutely! It appears that critical thinking is a lost art. Too many people are afraid to challenge authority or the status quo. Need evidence, just look at who is President.
The benefit and value of mutual aid. Through the use of mutual aid, communal bonds are fostered and strengthened. Equality exists throughout, and no single person or group are able to exert their dominance over others. Without the existence of systematic oppression and exploitation, I feel the world would be a better place to live in.
