Technology, Good or Bad Overall?

[Fake Messiah]

Thing is that humans are technological species. Our ancestors, like Homo Erectus, discovered fire and relied on technology too much that we now can't survive without it. Our jaws are too weak to chew unprocessed food, our bodies can't sustain body temperature without clothes and so on.

I guess the problem today is that technological progress seems to be jammed by people who are afraid of progress.
Progress should obviously be concentrated on replacing oil and cleaning up the world, but it's not.
