This retort of yours has nothing to do with the obvious point that that is made by asking you if you are honestly unaware of all the indicators that show the world to be a better place and improving.

I did ask you FMF what things you are referring to and you called my optimism certificates bogus.

Callous no, facetious, yes. What should I do parade up and down with a sign, the end is nigh?

which is worse the death of 2% or 11% of the global population?

Stop evading.

The loss of 2% of the world population in 1945 is far worse than the loss of 11% of the world's population in 1220.

Tell that to the people killed in 1220.

lets see if you are really interested in the reasons by doing your own research.

I already know what an idiotic reason it is.

Why don't you post it here so everyone can see how idiotic it is?

more than 1 in 10 people in 1220 were killed. can you imagine living in a society in which 1 in 10 people were killed??? what would it be like living through that fear, how would that effect societies?

now think about living in a society in which 2 in every 100 people were killed....are you sure its worse?
