science has proved that human DNA is 99.995% identical between all people, so I guess we are not that different at all...
in fact were all probably inbred as there is more difference between a two flocks of cows from the same country as there is between all human beings...
and if you think about it on a purely mathmatical level, for you to exist 2 people had to have sex, now for those 2 people to have existed 4 people had to have sex and for those 4, 8 people had to have sex, by the time you get back to the time of Christ, Billions of people had to have existed and the population base is just way to small for that...
so perhaps we all get on because in some deep rooted way, we are all related...
but then again maybe not, I mean what the hell do I know, I drink way to much, smoke to much and indulge in drugs even though I know that it will probably result in my eventual slow and painful death...
so I'm not the best source for information of a scientific nature...
but I thought it was interesting none the less.
