Science and its drawbacks

People living in the present day world are lucky since they live in an age of technology and science. An ordinary man has so much of technological tools and methods at his disposal that in a certain way their life is even better than even kings of yore. That is technology and that is how it has changed civilisation. However we must also consider the flipside of this scientific revolution. There is a lot that human beings have gained but in the process they have also lost many things. The biggest disadvantage is that man today has created and invented modern destruction machines that are enough to destroy the world many times over.
