To me, the question is whether we are living in a way that is compatible with our evolutionarily aquired psychological characteristics, i.e. our programming. Because that stuff isn't going to change.

Also, I feel that the idea of "modernity" is a farce, in that every person who ever lived was living in the most modern era up to that point.
