Do you think we're in the middle of a 'new age of enlightenment'?

We absolutely are in an enlightenment age. Look at the advances of technology just in the past 50 years, it's incredible how much technology has advanced and also (very) scary at the same time. The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of life.

Actually I see very little technical advancement in the last 50 years outside of information tech. There hasn't been a major advance in energy, transportation, mining ... the bigs. There has been an ag advance: GM crops ... but the debate is lively as to whether those are a good thing. So long as certain ag giants don't use that to cartelize seed ... I think it's good.

There is no enlightenment, just a clearer understanding of the darkness we float in. The realisation, which in itself brings out difirent and sometimes opposing reactions depending on who is observing.

Thats funny you say that, look right in front of you. What is that?... A computer! One of the most significant inventions ever. Even though the computer was not invented in the last 50 years, its the ADVANCES in technology that made them available to the masses.

And you said energy? haha! Look at all the alternative fuels and new innovative ways of creating energy we have. Just take a look at cars for example. We have cars now that run on the sun, water, hydrogen, electricity, ethanol (fuel made from corn!), they even have cars that run off VEGETABLES. Drop in some vegetables into a tank and you can drive your fricken car. Incredible.
