For my money I would say, yes, and I think Louis C.K. was right when he said, "Everybody on every plane should just constantly be going, 'Oh my God! Wow!' You're sitting in a chair in the sky!"

Yes, but by that logic we should be dumbfounded with awe every time we speak to turn on the lights, make a long distance call, eat a fresh fruit grown on another continent, or walk around after open heart surgery.

At some point we should just assign credit where credit is due: thousands upon thousands of people working very hard for many decades to make the impossible possible.

Our modern world is amazing, but it’s not miraculous. It’s achievement, not supernatural.
