John N. Gray Quotes

Today, For The Mass Of Humanity, Science And Technology Embody 'miracle, Mystery, And Authority'. Science Promises That The Most Ancient Human Fantasies Will At Last Be Realized. Sickness And Ageing Will Be Abolished; Scarcity And Poverty Will Be No More; The Species Will Become Immortal. Like Christianity In The Past, The Modern Cult Of Science Lives On The Hope Of Miracles. But To Think That Science Can Transform The Human Lot Is To Believe In Magic. Time Retorts To The Illusions Of Humanism With The Reality: Frail, Deranged, Undelivered Humanity. Even As It Enables Poverty To Be Diminished And Sickness To Be Alleviated, Science Will Be Used To Refine Tyranny And Perfect The Art Of War.
