@matrix she's making good points, particularly

>science will be at the beck and call of all tyrants and totalitarians when they need—since the scientists will be.
>There is nothing whatever in science that sets the slightest barrier to its becoming an instrument of evil.

I don't know enough of Heidegger to follow the thread completely, but how modernity and technology altered life are things to be pondered on

@orekix
That's like saying an axe is bad because it has no mechanism to stop someone from using it to chop someone's head off. Science is a tool, not a moral actor.

"If you interrupt a scientist and say “What about the profound beauty of nature? What about nature as theophany?” he has nothing to say."
