The qualitative leap from not using fire to using fire, from no missile weapons to missile weapons, from no agriculture to agriculture, from no animal husbandry to animal husbandry, from no codified writing to codified writing is far greater than that between the lack of any subsequent technology and the invention of said technology.
Either:
1. Prehistoric man was incommensurately more Materialist than us.
2. The aforementioned technology was not invented by prehistoric man.
3. There is no link between Materialism and any and all technological progress.

The philosophical foundation of modern science is cartesian rationalism, which is a form of idealism. And all the previous religious thinking was of course idealistic as well.

Could you expand on this? Is this true? Are you referring to Cartesian dualism? What fields DO have their foundation in materialism, if any?
