Technology is a wonderful thing, because there are so many ways we can put it to use. We can use it destructively or let it do our dirty work. In the last century we put our technology into computers. They have been a great use to us in terms of finding information, communicating, writing, drawing, ...

Blue prints of every human being have been listed. Information of every detail, personality and physical appearance of yourself has been stolen before your birth. In a test tube, with a drop of your blood some one could figure out all your history and fundamental purpose in life, what's in yo...

Advancements in all fields of technology are inevitable in the information age, like the invention of the New Leafs in biotechnology. These technological advances have brought society to a new improved level. It is because of this biotechnology that we have so many advantages such as improved crops ...

Resistance to Technology Technology. What would we do without it? Probably have a lot less fun and have a lot shorter life span. Think about it, you couldn't watch Dawson's Creek or Friends every week. That would mean that the lives of millions of teenage girls in America woul...

Spring lingers in Alaska and the glaciers in the Sierras are melting - bringing with the sense of possible doom as well as a reminder that the technology that is the lifeblood of the modern world comes at a distinct price. But while we might think that the hand-wringing that is ...

Kent Fillmore BGMT302 May 01, 2001:15:35:00 The Impact of the Information Age on Society Introduction: I have, since my earliest memories, been fascinated by the rapid advancements in science and technology. I have seen, in the course of the last 40+ years, our ability to affect the world aroun...

In the 1920's the telephone was but a few years old, and still considered a rich man's tool. Widespread use of the telephone would not come about until some time in the 1930's, and still the hunger for more and better technology existed. It was in the 1920's that the idea to deve...

The Terrifying Normalcy of AIDS In Stephen Jay Gould essay the "The Terrifying Normalcy of AIDS" informs the reader about a deadly disease killing humankind. We the humans are at a time where we should not ignore AIDS. AIDS is at threat to humans today. So far there is no cure to this dea...

There are many scientific benefits to cloning. Cloning is defined as the making of a precise copy of a molecule, cell, or individual plan or animal. The scientific benefits of cloning are endless and know no boundaries. The reason that it knows no boundaries is because not all forms of cloning a...

The relationship between population and consumption might not be a concern for most people. In fact, most of these people might only have a little knowledge of this relationship because they do not realize the importance of it. They might feel that population and consumption do not intervene with...

Human Cloning: Part A: Issues Introduction The issue I have chosen for this project is stem cell research and human cloning. I do not support this issue in any way. Each human life is unique and sacred unto itself. That human life becomes a human life at the second the sperm meets the egg. ...

HUMAN EVOLUTION Is it possible to reconstruct the past? This is the question anthropologists and other scientists have been trying to answer for decades. Mammals are curious creatures and it is this curiosity that causes humans to want to know our past. Most of the information known today ha...

There are two main areas of which knowledge can be obtained; they are from a scientific and artistic point of view. It has been argued that the true form of knowledge is acquired from science, but artists also play an important role in understanding the world, which surrounds us. The scientific vi...

People always tend to seek the easy way out looking for something that would make their lives easier. Computers have given us the ability to do more in less time giving us, at the same time, more comfort. Computer technology is used everywhere from businesses to homes. Programmers and technologists ...

We've seen them in the movies, in cartoons, and even working in hazardous conditions separate from humans, but as technology improves and man kind moves forward robots are appearing everywhere. Traditionally used to work independent from humans robots are now working with humans due to the ne...

The biological definition of a clone is an organism that has the same genetic information as another organism or organisms. From this definition and from information about the science behind cloning, my current view on cloning is that it is ethical. This statement ignores information about how we c...

The Future of Cloning Cloning humans has recently become a possibility that seems much more feasible in today's society than it was twenty years ago. It is a method that involves the production of a group of identical cells or organisms that all derive from a single individual (Grolier 220). It i...

We Are the Future In an age where the phrase "You've got mail" is second nature and the infinite stretches of knowledge on the information highway are only a click away, we have to stop to think. What are we doing? Where are we going? If there are problems, how do we solv...

For humans to consider the cloning of one another forces them all to question the very concepts of right and wrong that make them all human. Aside from a few valid ethical arguments against it, I support the move to clone humans.. Scientists and ethicists alike have debated the implications of hu...

Deep Ecology/Ecosophy The ideas behind deep ecology have major implications today. They allow people to think more profoundly about the environment and possibly come to a better understanding of their own meaning. People are intensely concerned about the world's technological ...

Frankenstein, one of Mary Shelley's novels, tells a story of Victor Frankenstein, a scientist who defies nature by creating a monster with dead body parts. In this time period Mary Shelley wrote when the difficult sciences were still considered a part of philosophy, but were rapidly developed i...

The population of human beings had been showing a rapid increasing during the past several hundred years due to the adequate food supply and the top position where human species is in the food chain. However, many people are concerned about that one day the Mother Earth may not be able to provide ad...

This paper will examine the scientific view verse religion. I feel support for the big picture is shallow and untenable. I believe in science but I also have faith. Scientific research has lead to dramatic and more humane treatments of persons suffering from mental disease, depression, and physica...
