"basically, using your logic, its impossible to serve humanity, because two people just need contradictory goals and then its impossible to serve both of them."
I didn't say it is impossible. Humanity (human beings as a whole, rather than the species) could, perhaps, be served by civilization. But there would have to be some fundamental changes to civilization in order for this to happen.
For he moment, civilization doesn't even serve the interests of the species, let alone the interests of humanity. We are in no way prepared to have our species carry on after an extinction level asteroid impact on Earth, as we do not yet have viable colonies on other planets. As for civilization serving humanity, over a third of the human population is malnourished / starving. These two facts alone are enough for us to plainly see that civilization is an utter failure in it's mandate to serve the interests of the species and humanity as a whole.
you didn't say it was impossible, but the requirements you made, make it impossible. you cant serve every human... yes, we dont have colonies on other planets, to carry on the race if an extinction level asteroid impacts the earth, but we have the tools and technology where it is likely we would see such an asteroid long enough ahead of time where we could change its trajectory enough to miss the earth and save humanity; enough so where an asteroid hitting the earth is one of the most unlikely ways for humanity to become extinct. over a third of the human population is malnourished/starving? well, how much was malnourished/starving 1000 years ago? civilization has cleary significantly reduced the percentage an impressive amount in relatively little time...
