Has science truly helped or destroyed us?

The world of the early humans and animals alike could be likened to a world that justifies that true biological sayings in which the "survival of the fitness of course lies in the strongest". Over the years in some 100 million years ago according to some archeological findings, many powerful and less powerful humans and animals have graced our planet earth possessing such mindsets and as time went on, many of them did become extinct due to too many reasons that are resulted from not having enough to cover for their feeding as much as the constant deforestation that even seem to have destroyed their natural habitat(as in the case of animals and men alike) and eventually chasing them to many unknown lands and destinations without any records till date. Though at this point, makind became a little more separated from these teeming beasts haven been able to set his own priorities as a higher animal that would later go on and take full charge and the responsibilities of overseeing the entire universe being a direct order from the greatest one in the entire universe -God.

More so, as the said time of personal actualization and settings of priorities of men became more and more obvious, men's authoritative nature was now fully blown out as he was determined to differentiate himself from the animals which would eventually put him on top of his food chain that were seen in the ways and the activites of men(poachers) back in the days of the early men whose only reliance for better meat for their food, both foot and body wears were all gotten from these animals hide and skin as much as their daily bread were all said to have been gotten from the sales and proceeds that were made from these hugely large beasts whose population were feared and talked of almost taking over man's domain in the well arrangement of things.

However, this situation went on and on for some donkey years without making any head way until the early mideveal ages when makind began taking full control of the universe in what was viewed according to the biblical injunction @ Genesis chapter two, where man was given the dominion over all the animals which means they could as well help in serving man's other purposes being -food.

In addition, and as time continues to evolve, many changes regarding how man thinks and makes use of the entire universe changed overtime which are seen from all spheres of life back then and even in this our current dispensation.

There were notable changes in the areas of science. These scientific changes gave right to an advanced improvement in medicine that duly replaced the usual herbs that were merely administered to minor injuries as the most serious case scenarios like too many heart complications and diseases, malaria parasite that killed many Africans, issues of anxieties, cancers of all kinds and degrees and many other complications within the human systems were totally left uncatered for given man's limited knowlege back then.

At this point, i cannnot be argued that man's ideological improvement have taken a giant stride with a very serious improvement in many issues associated witt health, transport, et cetera.

Man in the modern era

In addition to all that, the modern era which was ushered in full force given the abundance of knowlege then gave impetus to makind's currently inherited issues like the too many problems that we have now though, it cannot be argued that this period did not usher in a far more enriching and beneficial aspects of man but with the current situation in the world today, it becomes rather clearer to see that the good have been swallowed up by the bad ones all because of man's continued exploitation and his constant use of the earth.

Man's finest and life easying era.

The mordern era for every man and woman alive seem more like the best of mankind's era given the too many things we enjoy today like the fact that man would no longer travel some miles away only on donkeys for the poor while the rich and powerful amongst men back then rode on horses and chariots to their destinations.

These days however, such a situation were very much uncalled for as what we now have everywhere are cars of different sizes, engine and turbine powers, colours and and designs that attracts a huge handsome amount of money to buy them either for personal use which is so in most case scenario or for a use as a public transport.

These attributes as a result of mankind's quick thinking gave rise to other faster mechines like the super planes we have all come to know today and that could house a lot of persons on a single trip with only the combustion that occurs at the engine area as all that is needed to place it on a balanced altitude of the four cardinal point of a directional compass for which the aircraft is placed to navigate through the ever strong winds and very much well placed above different sea levels. Yes man has justified the fact that he is indeed a higher animal on that occasion alone even though on too many other occassions as well.

The blessings and understanding of men would still not end there as man has justifiably ensured the easiness in life as he tried replacing many hard jobs with robots' to do. What that means is that man has overtime being able to reduce the hardness of the job he does with his hands with his development of robots that would go on to undertake such tasks while is given the placement he deseeves.

The list of man's use of the planet earth to the fullest or almost to the fullest can be stressed to the activities of man both in the times of changing the phase of marketing that was mainly characterised by the usual and defunct trade by barter system where goods were exchanged for goods with the recent fiat money we all make use of today as a means of exchange and as a means of value storage which were the key missing moments about the barter system. Even down to this presebt times, those improvements are constantly seen from how man have successfully changed the phase and means of buying and selling with the current crypto currencies that are ever seen today. A token well built with the computerized mechine language and stored in the air with all forms of none third party involvelment. Transactions are done on daily basis without any form of centralization or those of fear or favour as tokens are well stored in some trusted wallets after haven been built on a very strong blockchains.

What i'm saying here is not anew to us all being crypto hopefuls and enthusiates especially all of you here @read.cash. it has always been a system built to monitor, build more and increase our income base crypto wise which of course is metamorphorsed into monetary terms for the goodies of the investment purpose that is worth the dime that is paid to for it. So far, the cryptos seem to have been generally accepted in all areas of b uisiness and as that lincursion continues to go and on, so also is their prices per one coun/token will continue to be on the rise even for the forseable future. Here's a list of what should make you happy as both a crypto coin/token hopeful or holder;

  1. Bitcoin: developed back in 2009 and seen as the mother of all cryptos. Haven suffered some set backs due to a lack of believe in it and some propagandas sourrouding its envolvement and replacement of money as a medium of exchange, it still managed to prove all doubters wrong and is now standing the ever strong test of time with a current price per coin that is placed at a whooping $60,667.09 and down by -02.15% as at the time of wrting this report and with more increment expected in the later part of the year.

  2. Ethereum: this is the second most recognized and strongest crypto whose times of struggling was also as a result of the doubters believe in it but with the current situation, it has been able to prove all doubters wrong by hitting an all time high of $3,905.17 while its growth per minute is placed on a reasonably 1.62% to 4.5% higher and it is up by +1.1% high.

  3. The Bitcoincash: is the fork of Bitcoin which was created in 2017. It got divided in a period where some who believed in it think it is a fork out of Bitcoin while those that don't believe in it think it is not. The arguement regarding this crypto would go on and on until all doubters were proved wrong which now estimatedly puts the BCH on a huge price of $6.23.80 while dropping at a value of -0.46% with an expected rise up to 15.76% in the coming few minutes.

  4. The BNB/Smart Chain: both are of the same reputation and with a current price tag of $4.66.23 while it is down by -2.21%, there is very much high hopes of gaining its fast 6.7% increase. The list will keep on going on and on but for the purpose of not filling up the wrting space, I shall be drawing the curtain close on these few above discussed ones.

Haven gone through all of that, you will then be able to understand what a prospect it is for mankind's envolvement from the early and primitive stage down to this modern era of improvement and advancement in all spheres of life.

The unfortunate development/advancement turned into problems and those of man's domination of another into his injuries.

The mordern day era which has but attracted a lot of praises for man in his endeavour to making life worth living, has also but created a very big vacum in the world today especially in the life of humans.

Worthy of note is the fact that animals who now seem to have found a redemption for themselves seem a lot more separated from we humans in too many ways while mankind's constant scramble to rather dominate and reduce his fellow to induced hardships, problems both politically, economically and otherwise is seen on the everyday to day life and activities of man.

How do we know all these things one may ask? Let it not be forgotten that we are but social animals and like gladiators who take lives equal to what they gain and live for, so also is the direct and the indirect hunger to dominate and reduce other human race to mere rumbles has taken the order of the day.

What knowlege that remains very much in abundance for we humans are now being transformed and channelled into some productions of all sorts of chemical weapons of mass destructions that are aimed to destroy what we helped built.

Take it or leave it, just as Rome was not built in a day so also can we never ever recover the lives we have wasted and the properties we have destroyed even in some hundred years to come.

What do we see of those technological improvement and advancement is a total hardship and an unwarranted and untold hunger and many health issues that many are subjected to due to the continued rise of wars where nations have lifted up swords against the others and the issues of terrorism is now very much on the rise as much as kiddnapping and all manners of cruel ways to mutigate, mime and kill people in all forms of attacks and repriesal attacks using all weapons of mass destruction like the Ak47s, the Mechine guns, the atomic bombs and all other weapons that are capable of destroying all that we've helped built science wise.

Of what use are the improvement in health facilities when it is obviously clear that many more lives have been wasted from so many unresolved and less understood diseases that defile all manners of medical assault. The issues of the dreaded covid19, sars and ebola that killed many in their sorry millions will tell to what extent scientific improvement has gotten it all wrong. Forgive me pls if i'm intruding a little bit more into the diverse world of the unknown.

Could that be for all forms of political reasons that these so called improvements were made? Only time will tell as i'm well dumb founded in that regard.

Let the truth be told, unless we begin to realize the little space where water enters the boat, then our problems of thinking of being in the mordern era will all but be a mere mirage and a casting of a building in Newcastle good morning.

Science and evolution have brought us tools for better living. It is up to us how we use that benefit for our growth or our own destruction.

I think science has done its part to our advancement but how we use them (more like how those on the know use them) might be questionable at some point.

Phew... what a post... and yes Science is there to help, it's main purpose for humans was to discover and use useful inventions... the "actual" question should be, why humans are douchebags in using certain inventions in a wrong way... beause nature and science are not wrong, humans are... their greed are
