In the article I introduce several distinctions regarding the issue of civilisation in general, especially stressing the role of values in its development. I also discuss the bases of the Western civilisation, which are—I believe—undermined in the name of certain benefits overridden by propaganda of various types of “correctness” (political, religious, social, etc.). Technology with increasing intensity transforms societies into superstructures, where humanity is disappearing. Technology is becoming more and more mentally ergonomic, replacing man not only in physical work but also in mental work. It is not about the utopian rejection of technology, but about being aware of both opportunities and threats including enslaving by technology. The phenomenon seems to be particularly dangerous if we assume the existence of so-called superintelligence (N. Bostrom). So if technology is not anthropocentric, sooner or later it will lead to complete incapacitation of the human being, both physically and mentally. For this reason, we should seek an integral understanding of man and the so-called progress. It is necessary to understand what values are important in our individual and social life. The fundamental value is the art of wise life as the highest skill.

W odpowiedzi dowodzi się, po pierwsze, że argument probabilistyczny jest chybiony, o ile nie jest uzupełniony dodatkowymi przesłankami materialnymi. Po drugie, pokazuje się, że argumenty z laboratorium, organów szczątkowych i postulatu naśladowania przyrody w technice można odwrócić przeciw teorii inteligentnego projektu. Po trzecie, omówiona jest kwestia odróżniania artefaktów od obiektów naturalnych w kontekście wymogu wyjaśniania. Wreszcie, twierdzi się, że zaniedbanie ze strony zwolenników teorii inteligentnego projektu dyskusji na temat warunków, jakie musi spełnić autentyczne, a nie pozorne wyjaśnienie ściąga tę teorię bliżej fideizmu niż nauki.

In the reply it is argued, first, that the argument from low probability does not work in the absence of additional assumptions. Second, arguments from laboratory, vestigial structures, and imitating nature in technology are reversed against ID. Third, the question of telling artefacts from natural objects is discussed in the context of the search for explanation. Finally, the neglect of the requirements for an explanation to be non-vacuous on the part of ID theorists is said to drive ID towards fideism rather than science.
