The Wonders and Perils of Modern Science (Bertrand Russell)
"In former days, men sold themselves to the Devil to acquire magical powers. Nowadays, they acquire those powers from science, and find themselves compelled to become devils. There is no hope for the world unless power can be tamed, and brought into the service, not of this or that group of fanatical tyrants, but of the whole human race, white and yellow and black, fascist and communist and democrat; for science has made it inevitable that all must live or all must die."
— Bertrand Russell, Power: A New Social Analysis (1938)
Here's a video about the wonders of science.
It's interesting how scientists, like the speaker in this video, aspire to turn this planet into a heavenly realm. May all their dreams, hopes, and wishes come true. May they also realize that there will always be men who just want to watch the world burn.
