My Motion: Life Is Better Now Then 100 Years Ago

Dear collegues, I would like to respond to the question is life better now then 100 years ago by saying yes.
Life is better now then it was 100 years ago.

My following motion is to describe how there is a better environment in the present.
100 years ago, only 1 in 7 homes had a bathtub, the world was far more polluted, law wasn't as stable as it is now, only 1 out of 6 graduated high school,  all modern-health objects we take for guranteed such as: soup, tooth paste, deodrant etc things that we humans need for basic hygiene did not exist, and also
antibiotics,plutonium, and insulin had yet to be discovered. Childern didn't enjoy their childhood with toys and friends, they spend it by pumping water,knitting, and milking cows and getting so-called kind detentions with beatings, which we, the modern world, have realized is not the right way to treat a child.We know today what rights we have, and that we do have rights. We know how to treat each other as commons, we know how to distinguish between whats wrong and whats right. People are more accepting towards each other, and we prograssed forward so much on so many levels, I don't see why anybody would want to go back 100  years ago.


My second motion is how far more realistic, less naive and smarter we are then we were back then.
Back then the law was religion, and people soullfuly believed that if they didn't follow the church they would burn in hell. Science a definite on the church's daunting list of 'things that will make you go to hell', and without science we can't prograss. Its the reason why we have less diseases then we did back then, its the reason why our world is far more aware of its situation, and its the reason we live the way we live today.
Our knowledge back then was that what was in the air was God's impeccable touch, the planet Earth was the center of the universe, and when an apple fell from a tree it was allegedly Jesus's all mighty touch. We now are solving mysterious, finding the truth of things, and we now elevate it a way that we never have before. The truth was hidden back then, but now the truth is more pungent and clear.


My third motion is the way we have advanced our communication and evolvement with each other.
All sources of media give us a chance to help each other, get to know each other, and unite as a community and a nation. The way the world reaches from a distance of 1000 miles to help a person, donate to a cause, save a person's life by a simple click of a mouse is amazing. Our world is far more aware of different situations in it, and without this new methods of communications alot of lifes would be dommed.
Internationally speaking, technology has offered so many chances for different people around the world to join in a conversation, find old friends and find new friends, and spread out different messages towards the world. I don't think anybody can deny how much our communication has improved and helped the world.
