The Progress Of Invention During The Past Fifty Years

Today, new technology and theories provide proof on how our world functions. Through these new developments, the sciences can advance. This advancement not only allowed us to increase knowledge but our rationality likewise. Traits that are only unique to us in the entire animal kingdom. Like science, Religion is seen to have as much of an influential role in our development as a species. Organized religion helps create a connection between people which results in community and culture. Ideas would be able to spread and grow far easier within a community. This was due to religion’s prevalence in the ancient world more so than the present day. A key example was the establishment of Christianity as the Roman Empire’s official religion. As

The 1960s was a decade where many Americas found a new life and way of living, it was the time of the hippies, peace and love. It was also a time where many scientific and medical discoveries where made, these discoveries have improved our everyday lives up to the date. During the sixties technology advanced with satellites, video games, the Internet etc. and with these advances they have changed our life style. Without the advance of the internet imagine how we would be today, nowadays we use the internet for everything we do.

Jackie Robinson once said “Life is not a spectator sport. . . . If you're going to spend your whole life in the grandstand just watching what goes on, in my opinion you're wasting your life.” Robinson was always looking to advance not only in baseball, but in life as well. During the years 1945-1970, Americans experienced prosperity, advancements, and controversy. For example, the assassination of John F. Kennedy caused Americans to question the honesty of the government. In addition, Americans also faced massive Civil Rights movements and anti-war protests that divided the country. Some other events/people that affected this era were Martin Luther King Jr., the Space Race, and the wars in Vietnam and Korea (“Prosperity

Technology has become apart of the human way of life. Simply step outside and technology can be seen everywhere. It aids not only our nation, but the world as a whole. Yet there was a point an time in history where technology didn't exists; it was just a mere thought. Such an idea was once thought to be inhuman or idiotic. It was portrayed as witch craft, unnatural, and frond upon because people were unwilling to change and accept new ideas. Yet when beliefs are tested, broken down, and explained, then greatness comes about it. There are people who brave enough to test these theories, without them we wouldn't be where we are today. Technology has been one small step for man, but one giant leap for mankind.

Religion has influenced an entire range of changes in the elongated history of the world. The alterations that have taken place in the past are clear and concise evidence that the underlying and ultimate influence is religion. Religion has been apart of a plethora number of events in the past because, religion gives humans a clear source of origin of the universe, and carries an everlasting assurance that provides protection and happiness among the permutations in life. Religion also served its purpose in all aspects of life, especially during the events between the 1600’s and 1800’s.

From the Abacus, the simplest form of calculating to the role of today’s computer, from the early telegraph to today’s satellite communications, from the simplest kite to today’s Jet Engine Airplanes, from the first liquid-fuelled rocket to today’s Space Shuttle, and much more to come, inventors, scientist, engineers, military forces and governments have all been responsible for those new discoveries made by mankind. “Perhaps the most misleading catch-phrase learned in childhood is that ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’ creating social compulsions no one knows how to control.” (The Inventions, pg.8) In the 1980’s, people were embroiled in many problems related to the evolution of technology, from those created by the microchip to those unleashed by the H-bomb. In contrast, invention springs from a divine discontent with things the way they are and a conviction that man can do better.

Without an excessive amount of technology, people would be able to continue life without it influencing their choices and relations around them. Overall, people have become overly reliant on technology and should begin to lead life excluding an abundance of technology.

Since the 1950’s the world has come a long way from new and improved technological advances as well as the way people view and treat one another due to skin color or race, however, hate and racism still linger in the world. All over the world, there have been many new technological advances since the 1950’s, some examples are smoke detectors, the internet, laptops, computers, mobile phones, and more. According to the article “More People Have Cellphones Than Toilets, U.N Study Shows”, 6 billion people have access to a mobile phone out of 7 billion people (Wang). Technological advances are always occurring and since the 1950’s there has been a lot of new technologies. The fact that 6 billion people have access to a mobile phone is phenomenal.

Technology today has hit a huge breakthrough since the 1950’s. One huge invention that has been created in the past few years in the self driving car. This is a car that does not have a driver and drives and parks itself. These cars have all of the things needed to be able to detect other cars, speeds, pedestrians and can do it in all from two football fields in length away. This car is being made through a company named Apple but the people that are producing the cars are branching off with google and uber, they are also talking with volkswagen and BMW regarding the technology. Teenage girls in the 1950’s dressed a lot different than we do today in 2017. Girls were expected to dress like their elders. Typical teenage girls wore long skirts,

Over a thousand teenagers in the world has a phone with internet. Over the past hundred years technology has changed in many ways. Some ways the internet has changed my life is in school, home ,and with cars . First and foremost is school and how it has changed. Since technology school has become more advanced with its studies. Now instead of doing work sheets, we do games and problems on a computer. Also instead of going to the library a checking out books to study. We can go on the internet and find all the answers. Finally there is research for a paper or a project we have to do. We don’t use the books we use our phones to do projects and papers. These are the advancements we have in school.

I believe that religion is, and has bottle necked the possible scientific, medical, and technological advancement of mankind. Let’s take a water bottle to present an illustration of how religion represents itself to me. The water in the bottle is representing said advancements of mankind. While the neck of the bottle shall represent religion. Last, the body of the bottle represents mankind. When you try to make a stream of water flow out of the bottle with the bottleneck attached. The water pushes out slowly, due to the said ‘bottle neck.’ However, when you remove the ‘bottle neck’ from the situation, the water will pour out significantly faster.

Imagine a time when the only way to get around was by riding a horse, or a time when the only way to get in contact with someone was sending a letter, or a time when the only way to dig a hole was using a shovel, during the mid-19th century young innovators, Alfred Nobel, Samuel Morse, and Thomas Edison developed machines that made doing all that easier. Inventions and innovations like dynamite, the railroads, and the telegraph helped the United States’ economy grow. Scientist developed, a railroad that connected New York City to San Francisco, a telegraph that could send messages across long distances within minutes, and dynamite which could blow up anything along its path. The United States had a small, weak, economy, until the mid-1800s when inventions and innovations united and strengthened the economy.

Outline and explain two ways in which religion may be seen as less important in today's society.

Religion, 84% of the world can identify to at least one. We think of religion like going to church every Sunday or one of the reason’s why we get some Fridays off every year. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, religion is “commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance.” But did the establishment of religion aid human development? The answer is quite simple, religion enhanced people’s knowledge, affected both collective and social learning and separated communities positively and negatively.

Science and technology offer a great deal to us, and it would be difficult to imagine any life, which would not be connected to science and technology in any way. Even the cars we drive are direct outcomes of science and technology. We depend on many things to go about our daily lives, and if it weren't for science and technology, we would be lost. Sometimes if you look at people around you who are not as interested or knowledgeable about technology, you can't help to wonder how they do the many things I use technology for.
