Technological advancement has influenced human civilization to the extent that everything seems quite interesting and easy to use. Science has encouraged and helped the individuals to gain knowledge of different entities which results in further advancement and increased standard of living. Be it an education, medicine, space, economy or any other domain, technological development is leading the world.

However, it has a drawback too, for instance individuals have been enslaved by the machines, now-a-days. Earlier the work was done manually which always had a positive impact on an individual’s life, but now the dependency on machines and gadgets has adverse effect on health and life.

Even the social life of individuals has reduced as people of all age groups restrict to computers and their personal gadgets instead of going out and exploring things.  Also, technological progression has resulted in more weapons and warfare which throw in turbulence in the society.

Therefore, as every coin has two sides similarly technology has its own pros and cons and it is on us to make use of  it in the supreme way without contradicting and challenging the God’s creation.
