Respectable members,
Greetings. Sri.Saidevo said (in a different thread) :-
Actually we have not discussed the 'poitive aspects' of 'science' as such. But that is beside the point. A wide spectrum of topics can be viewed under 'science'. Before we start scrutinising Science, kindly allow me to make few posts high lighting the achievements of science... then we can happily take them apart as we add more achievements of science.
Let us open with this please. Let us watch 'Science and Humanity'.....

As regards Raghy's argument that we should discuss the negative aspects too when we discuss the positives, the same logic should apply to:
• discussions of science: when we showcase the achievements of science, do we talk about the ills it has wrought on the human society, animal and mineral kingdom, and Nature as a whole?
