Humans, like to think that the tide of history is an inexorable march from barbarity to civilization, with humans "progressing" from one stage to the next through a gradual process of enlightenment.
Azief believe that the concept of "progress" is closer to an illusion. The delusion of the modern age.
Civilization was never a permanent state of being but something which can quickly recede during a time of stress
Outside of science, progress is simply a myth
There is many dogmas to those humanist who like to think they have a rational view of the world, however their own course belief in progress is a superstition, further from the truth about human
And what are these dogmas. The central one must be that the human march of science and technology creates good for the world.
science and technology is more like a magnifying glass….for humanity "warts and all".
The tools that humanity has created allow us to go to the Moon but also murder each other with great alacrity.
