In Sum

We humans have come so very far with the technological advancements of our own devise, but it isn’t clear whether we are still in control of the machines or if we are reliant on them and so we worship machines so that they will remain to provide us with our false luxuries without any enlightenment.  Reason may be discernibly superior to instinct, but instinct is part of our mind and accounts for a huge part of our personality.  In short, the evidence is out there and all around us that we as a species are devolving and some course of action must be taken.
