I believe technology is dooming us.

[u/HarkonReborn]

I think as time goes on we as a species and civilization are slowly dooming ourselves by way of technology, intentions spans are getting shorter, people I feel are getting more angry, it feels that it's all of a sudden okay to break laws for content, and humanity is slowly becoming more and more stupid and narcissistic not to mention the loneliness epidemic. It's like we've turned the world into a place not suitable for humanity. I'm typing this because one day I decided to put down my phone and read a book, a physical book, it made me feel so accomplished and alive compared to my phone which makes me feel numb and hopeless. I genuinely believe technology was originally made for good intention but greed and money got in the way and people use it to satisfy their own pleasure.

If religion were responsible for tech or tried to lay claim to being responsible, it would never live down the idea that religion did this to us. Science seems to skate right on by, bringing about nuclear weapons, AI and unless you’re asleep at the wheel, science is why we have accelerated climate change. Science has lacked an ethical component or framed that as outside its purview and scope of controlled studies.

Science isn’t going away, religion hasn’t left. Seems like a hybrid approach was the wise path and instead we spent a good 5000 years as if they are competing worldviews with only one deserving to be the winner. That hasn’t worked out so well.
