Modern digital technology is a blessing and the only way forward?

We are supposed to discuss this statement: “Modern digital technology is a blessing and the only way forward” Is this statement true, is this the only way forward?  In the bible, blessing’s definition is gifts that God gives, whether material or spiritual, as blessings. So is technology a gift from God or is technology destroying God as a blessing to himself? What god are we blessed by, the Christian God or the Greek Hephaestus, the God of fire? Now we are going to talk about this, and declare what this statement want to say.

Technology is a new thing to the world, and it have been around us for a few years. Technology is evolving every year, and new things comes to life. Technology is a good thing for us, in one hand it can make us healthier and can help us be able to survive for longer and explore more of the world we were born in, but in the other hand, it can destroy humanity in different ways. If technology ever conquer our intelligent, it can defeat us, like in one of those cyborg movies.

Different type of diseases like “Black Death” almost wiped us out, but with the help of technology, we can fight different diseases. That way we can survive for longer, without getting wiped out, like the “Black Death” where only 1/3 of the population survived. However if the diseases spreads before a cure is made, it can turn out really badly, but with the help of technology the cure can be found much faster.

In one of the paragraphs above, I said that technology can destroy humanity, this is what is about to happened, everybody is addicted to their phones. This is what Einstein feared would happen, this is supported by this quote “I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiot“. This generation he talked about is being born now, they will grow up beside technology, and hopefully not turn in to idiots, but if they do, technology is the only way forward.

In conclusion without technology we can be wiped out, with the recent Ebola outbreak we never know when our extinct is here. Apple have turned in to a bigger religion then any outer religion, like I said in the introduction “technology is a blessing to god himself”, more and more people stop believing in god. What do you believe, is god slowly dying out?
