What about people that just believe man is man and things happen according to God’s plan?

Most people believe that man acts badly- war, crimes, pour grammer, etc. Of that group a large subset thinks man can become good and therefore learn to live in a world without war, crimes or tooth decay. Of that subset I generally see two divides, one that believes man can create a utopia and the other that believes man cannot create a utopia.

You raise an interesting question. Of the first grouping there may well be more groups in addition to "Man acts badly". There could be "man acts just as he was designed" or "mans actions are purely random events" or "man actions are neither good nor bad".

Given these additional starting categories, I still see two main sub groups for each of those types. People who believe man can create his own utopia and those who believe that its not possible for man to create his own utopia.

I will agree that there is a small number of other people who fall into other non-utopia subgroups including "those who care more about American Idol than man's future" as well as the much misunderstood minority group of zombies, and then there is the French.
