Godcience-science is Above Everything
Most scientists tend to toil for long decades on their field of knowledge without seeing much progress in what they intend to discover. That usually leads to frustration and induces them to see limitations on what science can do.
However, when a long term analysis of the development of science is undertaken, the unequivocal conclusion is that technology is more powerful than God.
Although the God of religions has never given any proof of its existence or less still of its powers, it is seen by religious people as almighty. God supposedly has no limitations in what it can do, but the only one that really fits into that definition is science.
Technology is so limitless in its abilities that even scientists tend not to grasp at its far-reaching capabilities. Through history, intellectuals have constantly underappreciated its virtues. Although committed to it, they have regularly sold it short.
Bacterial infections are a case in point. For centuries, the epidemics that resulted from them were so ravaging, that the bulk of biologists were convinced that the tiny organisms were invincible. By the early twentieth century, the experts were still affirming that those microorganisms would never be vanquished. However, in 1928 Alexander Fleming proved them wrong by creating penicillin. By the early twenty-first century, the doubters had been proven even more wrong as hundreds of antibiotics, capable of tackling almost any type of bacterial infection, had been developed.
For long, physicists assured that the atom could not be split and that its immense powers would never be unleashed. In the 1930s, the large majority of physicists were still affirming that. By the mid 1940s however, they had already been proven wrong as the first atomic bomb came into being.
As recent as the early 1990s most biologists were claiming that cloning was impossible. However, a few years later, Scottish scientists at Roslin Institute proved them wrong. They not only duplicated biological material in a Petri dish, but also created the much-celebrated sheep Dolly.
As recent as the early 1990s the bulk of virologists were affirming that defeating viruses was impossible because those organisms were more resistant than bacteria. The fact that not even the flu virus had been subdued was given as proof of the complicated nature of viruses. However, a few years later, scientists in the U.S., Britain and Switzerland proved them wrong by creating the first antiviral drugs to fight AIDS.
These are just some among the hundreds of cases in which such a phenomenon took place. Through history, the power of science has been again and again underestimated by not just the masses, but also by the most mentally gifted people of the world.
Science are so omnipotent, that even its greatest supporters can not really comprehend how unlimited is its might.
