Horrors of science

It is generally believed that science is a mixed blessing.It has various uses and abuses.Though the advantages of science are far greater than its disadvantages,it has caused a fatal threat to human life,the atomic war.Destructive weapons are the result of science.Though the world is trying to solve the disputed issues through peaceful talks,the world is standing on the edge of total destruction.The most deadly weapons of science are the atomic weapons.As almost all the countries are linked socially,economically or religiously,any war may be a world war.It is science which is to be blamed for the creation of germ warfare and chemical bombs,missiles and bombers.

Science has invented many machines and tools for man.Though these machines have replaced man in many fields of life.The plus point for these machines is that they are more accurate and quick in their performance than man.But they have made the services of man slow and therefore unnecessary .Man has become unemployed.Unemployment is the sure cause of many social and economical evils.Thus the process of fall of human society starts.

The next negative effect of the use of machines is that man has become lazy and idle.He needs not travel on foot.He can cover long distances in a short time by fast moving cars,buses,trains and airplanes.At home,there is no need of broom;the vacuum cleaners are there to suck the least dust from every corner.Washing machines wash the soiled clothes in minutes.There are computers for his service.There are TV,DVD and digital receiver for his entertainment.All kinds of facilities have made man idle and lazy.

Today one of the grave problems is pollution.Ir ,water,and eatables,all are polluted.Science is somewhat responsible for this pollution.Big factories,heavy vehicles,trains and many other things of this sort are adding smoke,poisonous wastage,dust and other harmful particles to air,water and soil.The polluted things have caused many untreatable diseases.In spite of the modern medical research,many people die of these diseases.Science is responsible for all this.

Science has made man spiritually dead.He has forgotten the moral and spiritual values of the past.Science is responsible for the race of money.Everyone is busy in earning for spending.We have no time to meditate on nature.We are leading an artificial life.We are no more interested in the sights of nature.

Science has made man selfish and insincere.He needs money to enjoy the new inventions of science.To earn money,he ignores the moral values.Even,sometimes,he commits hateful crimes for the fulfillment of his evil prevail in society.Thus science indirectly is the cause of spread of these evils in society.

Truly speaking,we may blame science for many evils in society but in fact it is man not science who uses it for his evil purposes.Science is a blessing;the need is that we should use it positively.Science has neither forced us to produce lethal weapons,nor compelled us to be selfish.If we have used it for evil purposes,it is our fault not of science.
