SCIENCE : BLESSING OR A CURSE
The tremendous advancement made by modern science in
different spheres of human life has completely changed the
face of the earth. if the ancients could rise from their
graves and see the marvels of our time, they would be
greatly bewildered and amazed, and would probably agree
that there was no age in the past which was so good and at
the same time so bad as ours.The goddess of science has
blessed us with one and cursed with the other.let us first
deal with the blessings of science.
Since the earliest days of his existence man's master
ambition has been to conquer nature. Science has admirably
helped him to do so. Today he can move much faster than his
legs can carry him. Railways, steamships and aeroplanes
have brought him mastery over land, sea and air.And science
has also increased our communication speeds by conveing our
messages to our friends in twinkling of our eye who stay
miles away from us.In the sphere of medicine, science
claims splendid triumphs. Most difficult surgical
operations are performed with the greatest possible ease.
Apart from these, human comforts and luxuries have made
life more attracting and worth-living.Today machines are
made to be man's servants, yet he has grown so dependent on
them that they are in a fair way to become his
masters.Aldready, he finds it difficult either to work or
to play without machines, and a time may come when they
will rule him altogether, just as he rules the animals.
Machines have snatched from us the calm of mind and
peacefulness of our environment.Wars which were confined to
the battle-front between countries have killed innocent
men ,women and children.Can we defend civilization by the
instruments of barbarism ?
On the whole science has brought both heaven and hell to
the world of man.It is not science but its misuse on the
part of man that has brought so much of havoc.
