It is. When was the last time you admired a pencil as technological marvel or thought about all the science that went into making microwave food possible?
Microwave food, never but I'm from country where microwaves are used for maybe 20 years. I marveled at process of drying ramen noodle though.
Most people (kids and adults alike) do not care about such questions as - how is it working and why is it working like this.
I'm from post communist/socialist country and was exposed to glimpses of their child propaganda. Very young age and low availability, so I don't remember much, but I remember marveling at MIG fighter jets with red star, lorries, human carrying rockets or combine harvesters, tractors or mining.
Kids are like that. Marvel at things that they are exposed to. Adults usually get solidified in their amazement, so if they marveled at soccer when they were kids it stays with them throughout their lives.
True, people don't care. My point is, it's because they were never shown to care.
I like the idea, but maybe with less religious verbiage. We can promote technology, appreciation, and curiosity without getting into humanism.
Instead at age 10 they think it's as mundane as rain because nobody told them otherwise and most of them keep thinking it way into adulthood.
