uncountable noun refrence

0Hi! How is every body? I hope fine.02br

00First of all, let me express my appreciation to this wonderful Forum whose discussions always are fruitful. I am a fresh member who joins you from a Arabic-speaking country and wants to improve his English through your decent Forums.02br
02br
00I want to know whether should I refer to an uncountable noun with a singular or a plural form. For instance, should I say, "Fo thousands of years, mankind searches for a way to save 01b00himself 02b00from death." OR "Fo thousands of years, mankind search for a way to save 01b00themselves 02b00from death."02br
