In the long run, they will not succeed. That is true.
God is in control.
However, until then, God is allowing small numbers of people to re-engineer society worldwide.
Any such “engineer” is an idiot. The rule of unforseen consequences, well, rules. Such an idiot engineer is working with complexity not amenable to prediction. Speaking as, as I am, an engineer, I know our limits, and that is with restricted problem sets. All of human society? Good luck. Most of existence is Rumsfelds “unknown unknowns”.
