Well, that depends. Who are you?
The people who currently 'rule from on high' are pretty stupid. Not just foolish, stupid. They think they are being clever and sneaky, when they have to kill people in order to protect themselves. They think they are being scientific when they are being dogmatic. They even think that they can refute physics with dogma.
It's only a matter of time before that bites them in the ass. The question is how bound up humanity becomes in their schemes before casting them onto the trash pile to be burned. Just as Jesus lambasted the pharisee… "How will you avoid the fires of gehena?"
