I bet somewhere that Jesus and God have great antipathy for modern technologies on Earth. I think I kind of agree with them there. Some if not all the modern technologies have created monsters on Earth. What's your opinion about it personally and what do you think God and Jesus would say about it?
God created human beings and gave them brains. Why do you think He'd be opposed to our using them?
This is akin to asking how God feels about medical advances and stem cell research...
Yeah, it probably is. And God probably feels the same way about those things as He does about other technology. He wants us to use them to better our lives and the lives of others.
You are correct, but the theocracy is Christ as King and he will win.

What on earth are you talking about? I'm not going to speak on behalf of Jehovah's Witnesses, Jews or Buddhists, but Mormons totally believe that Christ is King and that He will win. I don't have a clue, though, as to how this comment relates to the OP.
Jesus constantly taught to refrain from placing our trust in the material things of this world. Whether it be money or cars or computers, Jesus' teachings work on a plane above such trivialities. The message of salvation transcends all earthly inventions.
I feel that Jesus would treat modern technology as he treated peices of gold with Caesar's face on it. It's irrelevant.

Since God endowed us with (well, some of us, anyway) with great minds, and always advised us to "bear fruit" and realize out potential, I don't think she would have a problem with our modern day technical world.
We must always remember that technology has greatly helped mankind, especially in the field of medicine, safety features in homes and cars; hygiene; and food quality and control. And since, after all, God supposedly loves us, He would be happy we invented these things which help us live longer and healthier.
I think that God accepts and does appreciate the advancement into the science and technology of electronics and development into His Creation and discovering things beyond the knowledge of the past .....But He would prefer that people would study God`s art and go beyond the bounds of understanding into Christ and the study the power of His gifts and move into the spirit and does greater things through His kingdom than Jesus did when Jesus walked in the earth
