renaisance in science and technology

the world is on fire, firing all three engines instead of 2 and 1/4. for the last few centuries the advancement of science and technology was basically supported by the european civilisation. then this splitted with a strong branch growing in the usa and a little branch in japan. today, usa, europe and asia are pulling in their weights together with china, india and korea joining japan as the full asian branch. with all three engines firing together, the rate of growth and progress in science and technology are likely to be in leaps and bounds. the impetus of such a powerful combination of human energy and resources can propel the world at a pace not seen in history. however, these energy must be carefully harnessed for peaceful economic growth and competition and not in war. the consequence of a third world war will be more devastating as the promises of tomorrow.

Science and technology without the moral stance of respect for individuals and their property rights leads to abominations - nuclear weapons, militaryism, exploitation of the disempowered etc.

that is the danger of a misguided or corrupted organisation/leaders. putting that aside, the progress of the human race could be much faster and more dramatic in the next 30 years than at any time in history.

WOW! Akan datang. Entertainment!
