“Society lives by faith, and develops by science.”
- The modern age is the age of science. Science has greatly influenced every walk of life. It has provided us with many comforts and wonders. The world today is completely changed. Time and space have been conquered.
“ Science is an organized knowledge.”
- Science is neither good nor bad in itself. It is the use, to which it is put, which makes it good or bad. Man may use it for his welfare as well as for his warfare. It is a blessing in peace and curse in war.
As it is well said:
“There is nothing either good or bad, But thinking makes it so.”
- The blessings of science are countless. It makes life comfortable but is also a devil. It can reduce the whole world into ashes in no time. In reality there is nothing wrong with science. It is upto man to use it either for peace or for war.
Samiel said:
“Science is the key which unlocks for mankind the storehouses of nature.”
- Modern inventions have greatly contributed to man’s comfort. Science has helped man to conquer the forces of nature. The whole world has changed into a global village. There is greater understanding and co-operation between nations because of science.
T.H.Huxley said:
“Science is simply a common sense at its best.”
- Radio, television, computers, telephone, satellites and air-crafts have changed the human life. As a result of remarkable achievements in the fields of medicine, agriculture, banking, education, health and communication, the standard of living has greatly improved.
As it is well said:
“Everything that can be invented has been invented.”
- Science has made the human life very easy, comfortable and convenient. ٖ Fast moving trains, buses, Aeroplanes, motor cars etc enable him to travel long distances without any difficulty. Today the people fly like birds in the aeroplanes. Aeroplanes are the speediest and fastest means of travelling. Today, we can travel long distances in no time.
As it is well said:
“Science is but an image of truth.”
- The mobile, telephone, telegraph etc have made communication easy. Electricity is a wonderful achievement of science. All types of machinery can be run with electricity. Our houses are lighted, cooled and heated with electrical instruments.
“Science is the poetry of reality.”
Marshall.M said:
“The new electronic interdependence recreates the world in the image of a global village.”
- Science has also helped us in the field of Agriculture. There are many machines and equipment which help us to increase the production of our crops. Now the farmers use scientific methods of farming to increase the agricultural productions. Science has also made remarkable contribution in the field of medicine. It has helped us to fight against fatal diseases.
As it is well said:
“Science has made it possible to stop pain and cure serious disease.”
- Though science has proved a blessing in human life. So the blessings of science are numerous. But this is the only one side of the picture. Man has misused the scientific knowledge in various ways. No doubt, the atomic energy has brought a revolution in human civilization but, at the same time, the nuclear weapons can destroy the whole world in no time. The example of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is before us. Science has produced many fatal or deadlier weapons which made wars very horrible.
Albert Einstein said:
“Science without religion is lame and religion without science is blind.”
- Science has also polluted our atmosphere. Our seas, rivers and lakes are dead or dying. There are no values and morality. The advanced countries are exploiting the poor countries.
“The proper use of science is not to conquer nature but to live in it.”
- In fact there is nothing wrong with science. It is a store of knowledge which can be used either for development or distribution. Man has misused science for his selfish gains. So, it is up-to man to use the enormous power of science for the promotion of peace and happiness of mankind.
As it is well said:
“The fault does not lie with science but with its users.”
- Science has made man forgetful of God and he believe only in those things which he can explain and understand by his reasons.
- In short, science is neither a curse nor blessing. So, it is its use which makes it a blessing or a curse.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge,
Knowledge is limited, Imagination encircles the world.”
