It's human nature. I don't know if something can really be done. We can try to regulate wrongdoing as much as we can, but we can't curb the urge for revenge
How do we allow scientific innovation without ruining the world?

What do you feel about these things though? I have been seeing a lot of your responses that are about a sentence long that just repeat what the person said. I get that you are trying to have the most posts but this is a discussion. I what to know what you think and feel about the book and about what people are saying about the book.n-dai che wrote: ↑27 Mar 2018, 20:12Yeah, right...

There is also the case of dynamite. Who says that its creator thought that it was going to be used in something more than the demolition of structures or in mining? Should I remind you his name, and to what famous award it is applied ?

Scientific innovation plays an important role in our society because it tries to make possible things out of nothing or from dangerous thing. They tried to modified like the dengue vaccine in our country, yet it damage many lives.

It seems that every new invention comes with a new consequence that it can be used for harm as well as for good. The book of Ecclesiastics states that, apart from belief in God, everything is meaningless. I am not sure I believe in God anymore, but experience also has made me come to the conclusion that despite all of our great inventions, there remains hatred and murder, and we seem to just be going in circles trying to improve the moral environment surrounding the status of our world, and that there seems to be nothing new under the sun.AbbyGNelson wrote: ↑01 Mar 2018, 11:39
What do you think? Do we allow innovation to continue without reserve or guidelines? Is that ethical? Is there a way to be more careful without losing out on new inventions that will truly help the world?

Coming to the point where it relates to the book, death is inevitable. Thinking about death gives you anxiety, it's a proven fact. Let's agree to disagree with the belief that no one can stop death, no matter where technology goes. This body is made to deteriorate one day, even the highly preserved bodies (Egyptian Mummies) decompose to a certain level.
