Hello,
This Earth culture you speak about has been taught to our children. Kids emulate what they see from adults.
When society has strict rules and punishment systems in place, it is very hard to evolve compassionate thought patterns.
Gradually over time society will discover the value of compassionate actions. The tone of our religious teachings, laws of the land and educational conditioning will shift from sadistic ways to more humane approaches to these things. Then the model a child grows up with and follows will change for the better.
