... & that yawning gap between "smarter" science & "stupid" society creates a sense of complacency & faux-superiority in the people. People start to think that society has become modern now & humans have transcended their primal needs & the basic ills & misfortunes, e.g. the 7 deadly sins of Christianity.
BUT, therein lies the death sentence for the society. Science may have advanced & improved & the result is the shiny gadgets in our hands & information highway under the ocean, but Humans are still mired in the same habits as our ancestors, for instance, envy, gluttony, lust, greed, pride etc.
Even animals kill each other for food, not for pleasure. We humans, as Quran says, is given the status to be better than angels but our own actions can make us worse than animals. (95:4-5)
P.S. Isaac Asimov was an atheist but what he said lines up with religious books, & people think religion is the source of all evils.
