We? --- I wonder if there is a globally shared conception of "we/us". Perhaps I am too pessimistic, but I am not sure that most people feel a connection to a global "we". Most individuals still perceive themselves as part of a nation/religion etc. A worldwide discussion on humanity's shared values and identity is needed to create a definition of what it means to be a human being that would be truly inclusive and not only based on Western concepts and views.
