I'd add your comment to the list of annoying things religious people say.

I always find it ironic when people use a computer and a modem to access the internet to decry science.

Have you ever had an inoculation? Surgery?  Do you take any medications? Do you own a toaster or drive a car?  Do you have a cell phone?  Do you eat food?  Do you poop indoors? Do you live in a house with running water and electricity?  Do you wear manufactured clothing?  Benefits of science, mate.

I’m not decrying science, I’m decrying scientism.

I’m decrying those who point to computers and modems, which as about true as pointing to warts and cancer, and flesh eating viruses.

What I am thankful for is purpose, for giving us modems and computers .
