Another fanatic has surfaced

This anonymous poster uses the language of a fanatic.

All things from the bosom of nature as close to their natural goodness as possible; free nature take to its course and natural selection works, improving fitness. Eliminate the effects of impure technology upon the purity of nature...

Natural selection produced the human species, whose fitness (judged by reproductive success and geographic spread) depends on technology.

You can't deny that human technological ability is a result of natural selection, so why is it impure?

I'm deliberately provoking this discussion, though I probably won't waste too much time with it. Have fun everyone!
