Beyond hope

I've read the saddening news that a number of executions look set to take place in a certain country in a few days.
Let me make it clear that my concern has nothing to do with the nationalities of the executioners or of their victims. It is just that I know it to be wrong to kill another human being. At least that is my understanding.
The world will never be a better place, all the time that humanity drags itself back into the filth by committing such atrocities. Such acts can only underline that humans are only animals after all. However what they are supposed to possess is a higher level of intelligence. What they are also supposed to possess is a degree of compassion. I'm really beginning to doubt it. I despair.
