The Rejection of Science Might Be Humankind’s Undoing

Many of our civilization’s greatest thinkers believe that humankind has found itself in an “evolutionary cul-de-sac,” i.e., that we’ve progressed as far as this species is capable, along road with a dead-end ahead.

Normally, these folks talk about our superabundance of technology and our woeful lack of compassion for one another.

Another concept is, ironically, in many ways the polar opposite. I join those who fear that it is, in fact, the rejection of science that will bring us to ruin.
