Wisdom from Peter Kreeft

 
 
 

Of course technology itself is innocent. It is the worship of it, the idolization of it, that is evil. Adam tilling the garden was technology. Noah’s ark was technology. Solomon’s temple and Notre Dame Cathedral were technology. So was Cain’s rock and the Roman art of crucifixion and the gas chambers in Auschwitz and the bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

—Peter Kreeft

from his book How to Destroy Western Civilization and Other Ideas from the Cultural Abyss
