As technology advances in complexity and scope, fear becomes more primitive.

I think that the massive, overarching, interconnected systems of technology tend to make us a little insecure, somewhat pliable, and susceptible to half-beliefs.

Just because it's on the radio doesn't mean we have to suspend belief in the evidence of our senses.

I watch movies occasionally, and I watch documentaries. Virtually nothing else.

This is the whole point of technology. It creates an appetite for immortality on the one hand. It threatens universal extinction on the other. Technology is lust removed from nature. - Murray (WN 285)

If you know you're worth nothing, only a gamble with death can gratify your vanity.
