Yes, I'm sure they will teach us how to treat each other.

While I heartily welcome clean energy, I do not regard it as a panacea or as providing meaning or purpose to my life. Like all major steps forward, it will provide a new constellation of problems and untended consequences. In all of this, the problem of happiness remains

Well, I'd put some credit to the folks who helped bring about the Enlightenment so we can research this stuff instead of just pray for it.

The quote is classic Pinker: unuanced, imprecise and false. He assumes that saints, heroes, marytrs, laureates, prophets, and the clean energy team all aim at producing the same benefit. Anyone with a modicum of historical knowledge can see that he is comparing apples and oranges

A work whose most impressive part, the numerous graps, was produced by historians and social scientists in Oxford. Pinker's job is to frame these graphs by couching them in unuanced/hyperbolic claims. In a word he is a propagandist showing no philosophical precision or care.

Please! Nothing wrong with clean and abundant energy, but you've just conflated beyond necessity. :)

The team? Would that be the Holy and Apostolic Catholic Church or the Toronto Argonauts?

Did Peven Stinker just figure out that free energy would radically transform the world? Great Discovery mate!

I don't know Steve, creating a society where we don't kill each other was a pretty big step in making it so we can actually have the ability to research clean energy.

Benefit humanity? Another unhelpful abstraction. For that portion of humanity that has died, clean energy means nothing. For many of those people perhaps religion through more meaning, solace and, dare I say it, happiness to their lives.

Can you show this claim scientifically? I mean, clean and abundant energy is quite nice, but there are many other factors to ensuring socioeconomic health. "Abundant" is a relative term, for instance, distribution is still a problem, and so on.

Well, I agree, but not without a question: won’t such a team be standing on the backs of history’s heroes?

Just finished it, Steve. Wonderful book. Many eyeopening pieces of information, not the least of which was the fierce Nikon vs. Canon tribalism. I never knew!
