Obviously: wheel > engine > all the others (except antibiotics)

Engine's invariable require wheels (either in the engine or the application of), and all electronic type devices need an engine/power generators and therefore wheels.

So it comes down to antibiotics or wheels. And the wheel takes it because what good is antibiotics without a wheel to transport it to a person in need?

Not having any wheels anymore would totally change the world.

You could say the exact same thing about most inventions. Is the wheel a terrible and ugly thing just because it been instrumental in the destruction of millions of people?

The belief in God has likely stopped a multitude more of evil from occurring than it has been responsible for inspiring. I can't prove that statement but I think most would agree with it.

in addition to pretty much starting the age of enlightenment, it helped spread the scientific knowledge that made the other discoveries possible.
