Technology is not a magic.
with some basic understanding of algebra you can learn some electrical engineering and build your own circuits.
with a basic understanding of a programming language syntax you can write rudimentary programs.
with some basic biology you can understand how single cells replicate themselves through DNA
Without understanding these all seem like magic although they are rooted in simple laws and principles. Once you understand the building blocks and tools of a discipline then you may start to see the larger picture.
Also I'm about to rant, feel free to ignore. It is terrible cliche to quote Einstein as being religious. He was not a religious man but used religious metaphors. You might as well use Stephan Hawkins quote from his first book about knowning the mind of God. Oh wait he lived ling enough to correct his mistake of leaving a metaphor open to be taken literally and has since clarified.
