We Need the Savior
Science and technology look like going to pose a great threat to mankind.
With advancement of technology, today even a school boy can get a personal computer which has performance equivalent to that of old super-computers only professionals and experts in first-rate organizations in the world were allowed to use a few decades ago.
If terrorists abuse this power of today's computers, they must be able to design or acquire some dangerous weapons, including destructive computer viruses.
And ordinary citizens can buy various types of very advanced products that can be easily modified so that they can use them as destructive weapons, too.
Further, people in the medical science sector can today easily handle and manipulate human genes and cells to produce new or dangerous life or biological weapons.
And, in order to prevent some crazy boys, terrorists, scientists, terror states, etc. from exerting their ability to abuse advanced technology and science, we have to present something more attractive to them, so that they will abandon their malicious plans to pursue other more peaceful interest.
For example, we are actually kind of being forced to allow the young North Korean leader to enjoy very wealthy life so as to stop him from taking a risk of intimidating neighboring rich countries, such as Japan and the US, to extort any material interest.
In other word, while citizens have globally obtained a dangerous potential by easily accessing high technology and scientific products, if they are not satisfied with their life, they might resort to terror or a kind of terror to destroy the conventional framework of the society, cause a turmoil or a crisis, and then try to steal any wealth.
But we should not promise such citizens any material luxury in exchange of their temporary restraint from abusing technology and science for their material desire.
Rather we must persuade such citizens to behave like responsible members of the society. For this cause, we have to reinforce our morals and authentic religions.
However, observing the state of mankind today, probably we will fail in achieving the safe society globally while technology and science are developed even by greedy private companies and greedy professors in the academic sector.
That is why we have to ask Christ Jesus to come to our world again. His Second Coming can only save the world in this context, since modern technology and science were mostly studied, developed, and put into practical use in the European Christian world.
