Technology

Technology is generally thought of with high tech computers or lots of gadgets that flip out. These are all uses of technology but there are still many more. What I believe is technology is any sort of electronic equipment. So it could basically be anything that uses electricity. The five most important uses of technology I would say are the computer, x-ray, life support, security system, and water purifiers. Five least important are the electric toothbrush, electric shaver, hair dryer, PSP, and light up shoes. I feel that there is the right amount of technology used at AES.

Vonnegut and technology

I both agree and disagree with Vonnegut's statement that 'new fangled electronics' are bad. I believe that the invention of all these new tools of destruction. Such as new warheads or nuclear missiles. I do not believe that you should make anything if it is not used in a good way. That is where I disagree with Vonnegut. He believes that all technology is bad and that you should do everything yourself. I believe that some technology is good. Such as things that can help invent new things. Also all scientists use all these massive technology computers to help make new medicines or other things. Also the computer is used for many good things aswell and is definately a very important part of my every day life. So I also think the computer can help you become. The computer helps mange things and is definately important in alot of every day lives. Thats why I belive that he is right that technology can hurt, but I also believe that technology is very good at helping people aswell.

Holy war

I beleive that holy war is an owymoron. This is because an oxymoron is a contradiction of terms that are put together to create another meaning. Since war is about killing. And holy is about god and following the path of god and all that is good then there can't be a war that is holy. If you are following the way of god and you are in a way religous or someone who is holy then you would follow the basic rules of whatever religion you are in. And in all religions it is forbidden to kill another human being and in some religions it is even forbidden to kill another insect of animal.
