I have mixed feelings. I like the idea of having one less competitor for high-tech jobs, but I worry about a scientifically illiterate population controlling the largest army in the world and messing up the ecosystem because they have trust that god will just take care of it for them.
While Christopher Hitchens was alive, he expressed worry about how abrahamic religions seem so eager for the world to end, and that some of the members are quite happy to bring about the end, so this world can be over and we can move on to the next stage. I share that concern.
