It is generally believed that science is a mixed blessing. It has various uses and abuses. Though the disadvantages of science are less than its advantages,it has developed a technology of deadly weapons. The most deadly weapons of science are the atomic warheads. Eight countries are the declared atomic powers of the world.
Unfortunately,there exist some disputed issues in the world. The world is trying to resolve these disputes through peaceful talks. But there is also a danger of war. If some war breaks out,it would be a world war since different countries are linked together through political and economical treaties. No country can be neutral for any longer. If such a war turns into an atomic war,it would simply be a total destruction.
Science has invented many machines. These machines have added to the comfort of human life. They are also a sure means for rapid production. Moreover,these machines are more accurate,cheap and quick than man. But they have exerted adverse effects on humans. They have substituted man. As a result,man has been rendered jobless. And then,unemployment is a sure cause of many social evils.
Machine has made man lazy and idle. He needs not travel on foot.he can cover long distances in a short time by fast moving cars,buses,trains and planes. At home,there is no need of broom,the vacuum cleaners are there to suck the least dust from every nook and corner. Washing machines wash the dirty clothes in minutes. The farmers plough their fields with tractors. These are harvesters and threshers to serve in agriculture. All these machines have made man lazy and sluggish.
Today pollution is one of the dire problems. Air,water and eatables,all are polluted. Machines are the big cause of pollution. Big factories,heavy vehicles,trains and many other things of this sort are adding smoke,poisonous wastage,dust and other harmful particles to air,water and soil. The contaminated provisions polluted atmosphere and dirty water have caused many incurable diseases. Thus,it is science which is responsible for all this harm.

Science has made man spiritually dead and selfish. He has forgotten the moral values. He needs a lot of money to buy the things science has provided. For that he earns day and night.to earn money,he ignores the moral values. Even,sometime he commits crimes to this end.when morality vanishes,crime take birth and social evils prevail in society. Therefore,indirectly,science is responsible for many social evils.

Science has dazzled humanity. It has turned impossibilities into possibilities. Time and distance have been killed. Agriculture has been considerably mechanized. There is remarkable development of industry.
The radio brings to us the songs of the greatest musicians of the world. The television enables us not only to hear distant voices, but also to see distant functions, matches, and other sights. The diseases have been conquered. Germs die, their victims live.
But there is another side of the picture. Science has invented atom bombs and hydroen bombs which destroy millions in half a second.
They let loose death and destruction on the head of humanity. Science has, on the one hand, given us numerous comforts and amenities but, on the other hand, it is also driving us into the valley of death. It is signing the death warrant of humanity, It is murdering humanity.
Science has created more problems than it has solved. It has brought comforts, but it has also brought death eith it. Science is a murderer.A murderer cannot be excused on the ground that before killing his victim, he feasted him or gave him comforts. Science has placed untoled power in the bands of man and man may misuse it. The memory of death and wholesale destruction that followed in the wake of two atom bombs dropped on the two beautifil cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki of Japan is still fresh in our memory. The same story may be repeated in a much more virulent form. To sum up, we must use science for the good of humanity and not for its destruction.
