The Age of Science

English book, p. 35

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

THE AGE OF SCIENCE negative aspect: it not only produced civilization but also brought about industrial pollution. In the 21st century, this industrial pollution reached alarming levels, resulting in what is known as global warming. It became clear that the world created by modern industry was highly polluted, making it impossible for any creature, including humans, to survive. People believed that industrial civilization would transform the world into a paradise for them. However, it became apparent that beyond its ultimate limit, industrial civilization offered humans nothing but an industrial inferno. Thus, the assumption of industrial civilization as a deity also proved false. Subsequently, humans elevated themselves to the position of a deity. According to this philosophy, everything one seeks outside of oneself exists within man. Under this assumption, it was believed that human existence had only one negative aspect: death. People came to believe that modern medical science would solve this issue and enable humans to live eternally in this world. However, despite extensive medical research, modern medical science could not provide the formula for human longevity. Even this theory, which was given the position of a deity, proved to be baseless.
