The Singularity is NOT Near

Ray Kurzweil's beliefs can be summarized thusly: The goal of evolution is to manufacture God.

My refutation of this is:

1.  A technology-creating species might not be the inevitable product of evolution. 

therefore,

2.  The price-to-performance ratio of computers might one day reach a plateau.

therefore,

3.  The rational response to the God of Kurzweil is agnosticism.
