Your point if I understand it right is that with advances in technology we
(as a broad generality) have become wiser intellectually in spite of being
exposed to a lot more low quality biological and social patterns. If that's
a correct summary of your view, I respectfully disagree. I see little
evidence of an increased intellectual acumen over previous generations.  

As for this group, it's the exception. I've personally learned a lot here.
For that I'm indeed grateful to technology.

Might I add that technology doesn't enlighten people. People enlighten
people. Technology just connects them together across time and space and
increases the potential for this to happen.
