ummmm.... What is Utopia? Your concept thereof and mine (and More's) may very well be extremely different. And that is a very good thing. And that is a major source of strife and conflict. I want my utopia, you want yours.
There are certain generic concepts (peace, happiness, harmony) that are definitely worth striving for always. But they are ideals; unattainable, and to a certain extent unrealistic. But desirable and worthwhile.
Can we eliminate hatred, jealousy, greed, and all things that make humans less than perfect? No. Should we try? Oh yes.
God/Nature/Evolution/Chance made us all different, and that is, indeed, a wonderful thing.
