Though I mock the past freely,
concede this I must:
Ancient ignorance and superstition
will not be our destroyer unaided.
They will come in farcical combination
with unbridled technological
and scientific hubris.
We will meet our ruin
in a devastating crossfire
of old bad ideas, like forced birth and wet markets,
and new bad ideas, like gain-of-function research.
We will meet our ruin
in a devastating crossfire
of old bad ideas and new bad ideas.
