Faith in humanity rising: It's been decades since anybody tried to vandalize Stonehenge. Sure, a pair of idiots just tried to, but it was decades before that.
Faith in humanity falling (and Žižek was right!): New explosives could be more powerful and safer to handle than TNT and other conventional explosives and would also be more environmentally friendly.

Via MeFi.
