SCIENCE AND WAR

             One thing is certain: if there is a war between two nations these days, both the parties concerned will use science to defeat the other. Gone are the days of primitive fighting with hands, elephants, horses, bows and arrows. At present it is a war of science. And in most cases, the country which has utilized Science more for building their weapons will win. War is a very technical affair these days. It has become extremely expensive and the art of war has become the of warfare science. These days, just by pushing a button, a missile can be directed to land on the intended target. The distance does not matter. And all this has been possible because of science. Thus, one cannot isolate science from war in modern age.

             Surely the fathers of science are not happy with the manner in which science is being misused in the modern world. They had not invented science in all its forms to be utilized in such a destructive manner. They had wanted to better the standard of living. Thus, it is high time that the right thinking people of the work should come together and rise a consensus to decide that this madness should stop. Science should only be utilized in a gainful manner, and never as a diabolical agent.
