Lol... Are you dumb? (he asked knowingly...) So many things, it's impossible to count.
Medicine and vaccines. Protection from wild animals, cold and darkness. Effective ways of feeding people, without everyone picking berries, or driving thousands of buffaloes over cliffs (because that's how Native Americans hunted, before white man brought horses and guns to the continent). Ability to predict weather patterns as well as geological events, like earthquakes. Solutions to overpopulation, like contraception.
Higher standards of ethics (that's right, f*cknut - for example we now know that stoning your children for disobedience, or torturing heretics is not a normal thing to do - something your beloved barbarians had no idea about). Advanced social institutions. Democracy. Education. Human rights. Ecology. "Green" energy. Etc...

Yeah - and die of smallpox, a common infection, or gum disease at 40. Or watch at least half your children die during, or shortly after birth. You're an ungrateful dipsh*t, who can't even realize how good he has it. I'll bet you've never even seen nature. Go - live in a forest, with your entire family of morons, I f*cking dare you, you fat, soft tw*t. See what that gets you...
