Facts and reason are very potent, I've recently heard someone propose that much of the west's success is based on developing and adopting a systematic approach for finding truth. Basically the scientific method. I don't know if that's really the reason for this period of relative success, but it seems plausible. I think it's important to note that facts and logic are not enough in and of themselves.

We all fall prey to emotions, especially when it affects you directly. They may not be enough but that doesn't change what they are. Bottom line, the past has to be left where it is, in the past. It will not change, no matter how bad some may want it to. If people would just learn to live the life they have and quit pissing and moaning about stuff like this, they would learn that it isn't as bad as they are led to believe. Cut the strings, get away from the puppet masters and mouthpieces that only care about themselves and the money you can make them.
