Science today has given us much comforts which were unimaginable to few years ago. Today we switch on the radio and listen to music. We have electricity, telephone, easy modes of commuting, refrigerators, air conditioners and what not. All these things have made the life or man very comfortable and have definitely increased the happiness also.
Science has made travelling easy and efficient. The world has become a smaller place to live in. but those exciting adventures and romances which travelling gave in the past have all disappeared. Modern travelling is just a dull business.
The men who live in big cities are benefitted in some ways while harmed inmany respects. The city people do not have any leisure. Their life is too busy and too occupied that they do not have time to stand and stare. Their lives have become artificial, devoid of charm and delight.
As modern age is an age of science, so men have become scientific minded. But as science is advancing, it is spoiling our civilization. In the kingdom of science, the words like love, affection and sentiments are quite foreigh. So what is the use of science to man if he gets whole world but loses his soul? Spiritualism is on the wane while materialism is on increase. Science has inverted weapons which, if used, would spell disaster and destruction for mankind.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
Thus, opinion remains divided. No one claims the science to be complete boon or a complete curse. Ti makes the mankind happy by its latest achievements but also shows its destructive power. Broadly speaking science can be used for getting happiness but the man mind of man misuses the discoveries of science.
