Technical progress - it must be given a different direction, towards the spirit

Instead of providing humanity with comfort and weapons, pandering to human instincts of laziness and aggression, science should orient its research in another direction. Can scientists be happy or proud to have given us so many increasingly efficient ways to destroy ourselves? As human beings move towards total self-destruction, they are also gradually losing their physical stamina and mental faculties, because of all the devices that relieve them of any effort. It seems as though progress is being made, but in reality our willpower and our spiritual faculties are diminishing. This is why more and more thinkers and even scientists have begun to question whether all this technical progress is really helping humanity. This does not mean that progress should be halted. No, it is nature itself that drives human beings to do research, but this research must be given a different direction. We must never stop searching, never cease delving into the mysteries of nature, but simply take a different direction, toward the heights, toward the spirit.*
