What if everyone was born at the same time?

Let people figure out what’s good and what’s not

The world can be a better place, but we are hellbent on making it worse. From climate change to wars, we are just tearing ourselves apart. People are dying in different parts of the world, and we belong to the same species and have two limbs and eyes and blood of the same colour, yet we managed to differentiate people based on the place they come from, their way of living, etc.

Some of the differences arise because of geographic location and the way people have been doing things in that place, but I wonder if everyone was to be born at the same time with no ancestors, how would the world evolve?

Everyone is born concurrently, and the successors are only born when people from the former are gone. So there is no one to tell the after-comers what they should do and who their enemies or friends are.

The people have an open mind and see things as they are, not how the older cohort wants them to be seen.

History?

Ukraine and Russia war, the Israel-Hamas conflict have a historical context, but what if the stakeholders in these wars are replaced by a new generation who have no idea what has happened before?

The countries we see now are nothing but a continuous piece of land with no LOCs or LACs. Will we still fight? No one knows about each other’s religion and sees people around them as human beings, not German, Israeli, Palestinian, Indian or country-associated identity.

In the end, we are all human beings having the same biological and physiological functions, and the factors separating us are because of our prejudices.

If anyone were to switch places with a person they see as different, they would also pick the same behavioural patterns or way of doing things, which makes them view the person as different.

The bottom line is we are all human beings and our environment, and more than the environment, the people we grow around influence our behaviours and thinking patterns that we don’t get a chance to examine objectively.

Maybe, with no one from the previous generation to tell us what’s good and bad, the world can be a better place to live.

P.S- Of course, this may sound wishful thinking, but it was just a thought that came into my head.
