How many people are dying of smallpox these days? Oh that's right - none; because MEDICAL SCIENCE wiped it out.
How many people died from crop failures before CHEMISTRY gave us the Haber process and thence the ability to produce ammonia on an industrial scale?
How could we read the drug-addled ramblings of a lunatic thousands of miles away, before PHYSICS and QUANTUM MECHANICS gave us computers?
Popular Youtuber Thunderf00t once described a person with similar views to yours as "selfishly pissing in the fountain of human knowledge" or words to similar effect. You are living in an age of plenty undreamed of in all of Earth history; the average human has access to food and creature comforts on a level previously enjoyed only by the wealthiest emperors. We can traverse the globe far easier, faster and safer than people once travelled to the next village. Where once even so much as an abscess in the mouth would be fatal, now cosmetic dentistry is routine. Without science and the benefits it brings, I will absolutely guarantee you would be dead inside a month.
If mankind had listened to people with your selfish, arrogant views, we'd still be living in forests waiting for the next lightning bolt to make fire for us.
