"Our faith in scientific progress has culminated in our having lost faith in humanity, and precisely for this reason our faith in scientific progress has grown only stronger as it is scientific progress that is supposed to fix all that is flawed in humanity. Consequently, the more we suffer from scientific progress, the more we turn to scientific progress to cure our suffering. Like someone lost in a desert, we cling desperately to any guide who claims to know the way out, even if that guide was the one who led us into the desert in the first place." (155)
