Do we rely too much on technology?

bloodymoonreaper · May 11, 2006, 08:52 AM

We have achieved so much with all this new technology that has come out. I has made our life so much easier . But , sometimes I think we rely to much on technology. Alot of people take advantage of it and that is how we have overweight , unhealthy people. Don't get me wrong, technology is great . But what if we can't use our technology anymore? We depend on it so much , that without it people would be maniacs.

We rely to much on technology today, like if anyone read "Dies the Fire" you can get a good idea on how the world would be if electronics,guns stopped working.

We do rely to much on technology. Have you noticed how there are fewer people in the world who can manage to function on a daily basis without technology? If there ever is a time when technology is no longer available many ignorant people won't be able to take care of themselves or their family.

Well I hope it is good. Is it like the book "On the Beach" . About a nuclear war eliminating a big amount of people and stuff. I know it has nothing to do with technology , but something like that.

^Please dont write in burgundy next time. It makes it harder to read.

Once again, if anyone reads "Dies the Fire" they can really get the gist of the world losing its electricity and gun use

whitefoxdemon · May 11, 2006, 10:48 AM

Sorry. didn't know burgandy was so hard to read. I'll stick to black from now on.

TalentedDavid · May 11, 2006, 10:49 AM

and black would be harder to read since its so close the the color grey

well tehnology ain't the *bad guy* here it is those who became to lazy to go out and exercise that's why so many are overweight (i'm not talking about those who are born with these disease)

tehnology is neutral neither good or bad
those who use it make it bad or good depending on the way they do

Pretty much, I think some of us lived through the 2003 blackout in the eastern parts of Ontario and upper eastern parts of the States. There were around 50 house fires in Toronto in the 3 day blackout, because we don't even know how light candles anymore.
