Of the Powerlessness of the Powerful: Path to the real causes of the extinction of the human race

We have been living under the regency of technoscience for more than a hundred years. In spite of its successes, its progress in the various fields of knowledge, the human race is not more enlightened, more advanced, that is to say progressed, according to the common language. In front of the brilliance of science (which one?), we have ended up forgetting that what, until about the XIXth century, has enlightened and given meaning to the existence, to the very future of European Humanity, at least, is Philosophy, the first Science from which those of modern times derive. Believing itself to be all-powerful thanks to this techno-science, the human race has judged that it can now do without the Divine - it is a quest for Meaning - and Wisdom, the figure of moral humanism.Also, in order to account for the impasse in which the human race finds itself today, that is to say its weaknesses, its flaws, its blindness, its disappointments even as regards its expectations of the benefits of science or, rather, of contemporary technoscience, it is obvious that the thinking of Philosophy is still sufficiently rich to enlighten us on parts of the present human realities.
