To me it all comes back to one simple word... Balance. We were designed to evolve and given x amount of time it is understandable that we go from using a stone tied to a stick as a hammer for food gathering to complex machines and computers. But as you say have we gone to far? Has the pendulum swung too far in the opposite direction ? How can we find the balance between technology and progress with our ancestral instincts? Does everyone feel this way or are we the minority?
