Supposedly we can understand anything through science, and change or control the world any way we want using technology. The thing nobody wants to accept is that we (our technology, our science, our institutions) aren't in control after all. Religion, which science & technology kind of replaced, is out of fashion. But it did give us something we lack now, which is the humility of knowing we weren't in charge. In the religious viewpoint there was something out there controlling the world that wasn't us. That's at least closer to the truth, which is that in fact nobody is in charge! Not a god and certainly not the people who claim to be in charge. Have a nice day!
