Engineers are also called "The Sons of Martha", the ones that toil unthanked and without glory as exemplified by the poem of the same name by Rudyard Kipling;

...

And the Sons of Mary smile and are blessèd - they know the angels are on their side.
They know in them is the Grace confessèd, and for them are the Mercies multiplied.
They sit at the Feet - they hear the Word - they see how truly the Promise runs.
They have cast their burden upon the Lord, and - the Lord He lays it on Martha's Sons !

I find that for good or for ill, the precious snowflakes and the dedicated LEFT are all convinced that they are Mary's children, they are convinced that they know all that is so and have no need to actually MAKE IT SO! This is the drty job of toil and labor. It is the job of those who know that unless they do the work it will all come down to ruin.

The Lord may have scolded Martha, but she was the one who made the household!
