Dammit, my comment go truncated.

My reason is simple, because the world gives me no reason to. It is not ruled by love, it is not ruled by compassion, it is not ruled by understanding. The world is merely the battlegroud on which these contend with hate, selfishness and close-mindedness.

But further, "times have changed" is a valuless statement. Change is a valueless thing. Both growth and decay are change, so I see no reason to use the fact that the world has changed to something other than what it was as a reason to consider it good. It may be good, it may not. It must be proven by what it is, not by the mere fact that it is different from what was.
