Resum
In case we would want to answer the question whether the human person is subject to cultural progress we should focus on the concepts of culture, human person and progress. We cannot hesitate about the fact of revolution concerning communications and varied basic and applied sciences like in medicine, during the last two centuries, yet on the other hand those advances have taken place at the same time as unprecedented warfare conflicts plus clearly unfair political and economic systems, which pinpoints if there has been a real integral progress at all. Culture is within a liberty field and thus it is ambivalent and ambiguous: not every single finding is beneficial, and as well it can be used for good or for bad. Integrating thinking, acting and doing is a way for both science and technology would progress within a real human sense and not alienating.
