Well, you know the Scientific community is so high and mighty.
I don't really disagree, but they are no more high and mightly than the religious community.

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.
Well, things are far better than they used to be. Regardless, keep in mind that when religion literally ran the world people we still killing one another. Hell, the church itself was among the worst offenders. Religion has a terrible track record of preventing war and a long track record of being used to justify it. Besides, science doesn't claim the objective of stopping war. That's a political issue.

Quote:
in the meantime....war is prevalent, suffering still exists, disease still exists...
Always will. But science has made the last two FAR less common than 500 years ago. And most of the wars we have even today have participants claiming God is on their side.
Good God man, Faith must accompany Reason for all of this to work.

Science is not the answer to everything.
No one said it was. But it certainly is the answer to a great many things.
