Thinking, Reason and Science are useful tools. They are quite mechanical processes and continue to become automated by machines.
But they are not a great antidote to "ignorance", as often assumed.
Calm lucid awareness is a better antidote to ignorance, which resonates with anyone.
It's possible to think, reason and partake in science in very greedy and mindless ways, which proliferates negativity and agitation.
When done in calm and aware ways they can be better for true human progress.
