I'm not arguing with you that science and technology can produce nightmares. And I'm not saying that science is all sunshine and roses.

But the original post said "science does not provide the kinds of answers people want." I think what most people want from science is to have better things, or less disease and misery. I would argue that it has done a lot of that in our lifetimes. That doesn't mean everyone is spiritually fulfilled, nor does it mean that we won't nuke each other. But it has done real things that make our lives much better.
