it galls me.

Think about it really.

The Bronze age introduced shields and spears to the battle space...those technologies
allowed Empires to grow.

Our modern 21st Century avionics and airframes, fly-by-wire capabilities also allow for
certain degree of dominance.

The underlying theme of human nature really hasn't evolved along with these technologies.

We're still killing one another in warfare are we not my friend.

Spiritually we are not advancing with our toys...we are stagnant...we've given up the exploration of Faith in exchange for a total reliance upon Technology and Science to solve every single problem...

in the meantime....war is prevalent, suffering still exists, disease still exists...

Good God man, Faith must accompany Reason for all of this to work.

I'm I the only one who sees through the shroud of Technological convenience?

Instead of killing each other sword to sword, it's done by remotely piloted drones.

These asymetrical wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are symbolic that Technology cannot solely defeat an enemy or the will to fight.

Science is not the answer to everything.

We are spiritual beings as much as we are part of materialism.

anyway. end of rant.
