Science: Advantages

Science has provided many advantages such as making life easier and more comfortable through technology, enabling fast and easy travel and communication, and improving health through medical advances. However, it has also led to disadvantages like unemployment from machines, pollution, urban slums, and dangerous weapons that could destroy civilization if misused. Overall, science needs to be guided by moral and spiritual progress to realize its potential for good while avoiding its risks.

Disadvantages

1. Though we welcome these blessing of science, we have to


consider the darker side of the picture also.
2. Machines have led to unemployment.
3. They have polluted water and atmosphere. They have caused
noise pollution.
4. Factories have led to slums where human beings live in squalor.
5. Our moral and spiritual progress has failed to keep pace with our
scientific progress.
6. We have allowed science to master us instead of using it as our
servant.
7. Machines make us mechanical, deaden our sensibilities, stifle our
creative talents, force mechanical regularity, uniformity and
boredom upon us, increase our wants and desires, and tend to
make us selfish, greedy and cruel.
8. Geographical distance has, no doubt, vanished, but the gulf
between the minds and hearts of man has widened.
9. Machines have given man leisure, but man misuses it to get
cheap and vulgar entertainment which destroys his physical and
mental health.
10. Again, science has put in our hands such fiendish weapons
as the nuclear bomb, the guided missile and means of chemical
and biological warfare.

•••••••We are in danger of destroying ourselves with these monstrous means which, ironically, are our
own creations. Rightly used science can bring heaven on earth. Wrongly used, it can trun this earth in to
hell by destroying civilization.••••••••
