Science is a good servant but a bad master. As a servant‚ it makes life comfortable‚ easy‚ luxurious and more meaningful. But as a master it is a devil. Then it turns life into destruction‚ curse‚ hell and ruin. And clearly‚ the devil is more powerful the than the servant. It can reduce the whole world into rubble and debris in no time.
