[FutureBuddha (5)] Updating Buddhism (with Buddhist Miracles through Science)

[Veronica]

Very cool composting strategy. On the topic of human organic material, also don't forget the value of our toilet waste. Not a glamorous topic lol. Poops are underappreciated, and can be used as fertilizer and fuel. This is the non-wasteful use of safely processed human waste. Not the same as the unsafe practice of dumping your night bucket into your garden (risk of pathogens).

Can, will and should Buddhism change and modernize even more, leaving behind many ancient superstitions and fables ...

Both yes it should AND it's inevitiable whether we agree or not. The outward firm and expression of any/all religion may change, wax, wane, die out. There are still good people who profess no faith. There still will be.

At the same time, will future technologies help some of the most fantastic claims and miracle stories of Buddhism become real?

Perhaps.

Does it matter whether miracles happen through a Buddha's powers, or through scientific and medical discoveries which bring about the hoped for results?

It doesn't matter how.

That's my opinion. For what it's worth.
