We are all the same creature (more or less evolved ape-like being) no matter what time (epoch) you may think it is and the only difference is the sophistication of the software (your education and upbringing) you are running and to a smaller extent how much you exercise your free will.
As you can see/may be aware, there are a lot of primitives still active in the world and they are running very much less than adequate software.
Some of this is due to poor or completely off-beam education (fundamentalist religion) but some of it is surely due to years and generations of running this poor software so that it becomes at least part of their built in hardware and will require intensive drumming in of newer software over generations to compensate, cf Israelis and Palestinians, "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" instead of "turn the other cheek".

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
