In this video Francis Fukuyama says that the end of history may be
near because the experience of the 21st century, he believes that we
need to change our life styles. He believes that there has been a
gradual evolution in modern liberal democracy's. Francis believes that
for the most part has been peacefully and the major democracy's would
not go to war. That only the smaller countries are fighting. Basically
he is saying that history has a direction and it is going towards the
good. Another thing that Francis says is that we are something special
in creation and that at the end of this door there will be more
enlightenment. Subjective experiences give us a sense of what is right
and wrong. We have to feel a certain away to do a certain thing. Which
means in principle you can build a robot as complex as us. Another
thing that has a direction is that religion has a direction as well as
history. That if you look at religion it is a common book of social
rules or corroprative rules. Religion is more functionally important
than some people realize. However, we are in the age of science which
has stripped away some meanings of religion. Francis says that
religions will need to evolve to keep up with modern science. Francis
says that if you believe that our insitutions are the struggles around
us and it forces us to look at the abstract of basic principles.
