     science and technology influence our moralty and nature

"First we thought the PC was a calculator. Then we found out how to turn numbers into letters with ASCII — and we thought it was a typewriter. Then we discovered graphics, and we thought it was a television. With the World Wide Web, we've realized it's a brochure."

This quote exactly shows how technology develops. From easy to complicated, from impossible to reality. However, I personally do not want to live in a world with so many advanced technologies. I believe, the more we get from technology means the more we have lost in other aspects, like morality and environment. What is the point of scientific advance without moral advance? Too advanced technology digs out bad characteristics hide in human inside.

 I would like to quote another guy’s words that "People today have forgotten they're really just a part of nature. Yet, they destroy the nature on which our lives depend. They always think they can make something better. Especially scientists. They may be smart, but most don't understand the heart of nature. They only invent things that, in the end, make people unhappy. Yet they're so proud of their inventions. What's worse, most people are, too. They view them as if they were miracles. They worship them. They don't know it, but they're losing nature. They don't see that they're going to perish. The most important things for human beings are clean air and clean water." Though these words seems to be somewhat inaccurate, I do have the same feeling to him to some degree. if we do not have the ability to control the anti-nature power, we had better not use it.
