> You seem to feel fairly certain that humanity is "on a path"
Look at a climate graph. That's the path I'm talking about. Look into the Anthropocene Extinction - that's us. We're walking that path; or more accurately, sleepwalking on it. It's not subjective whatsoever; there's mountains of hard data on this.
Extrapolating that into teleology / philosophy / my worldview was entirely your invention and interpretation.
