We all forget that we are really at the very start ... the very infancy of our civilization. We spent much of our evolution as hunter/gatherers wandering around the wilderness trying to survive ... it's only been a couple hundred years that we got out of that. Sure many of us became farmers and city people a few thousand years ago but all of them were all uneducated, unaware and highly superstitious people who only understood the world superficially.
It will take a few hundred or a few thousand years of development and hundreds of generations for us to get away from our habits .... if we can survive that long.
Your IF statement at the end of your post really is the limiting factor. Im not as optimistic as you are, but its good that some people are.
