Roddenberry's prediction that we'd have go thru World War III(in the traditional nukes flying towards cities, etc. sense) before we'd reset our priorities was a fairly pessimistic in that regard.....but I'll freely admit I understand why that was; Star Trek was, after all, created just after the first peak in hostilities during the Cold War, in which global nuclear annihilation was a very real possibility(instead of rather remote, as it is today).
