Countries today are rated either develop or developing based on their advancement in technology, when we go further to investigate what those advancement in technology are, we discover they are related to building weapons and defense. This is technology but the same weapons are use to introduce the act of killing human, the same technology in the act of making work fast and easier rendered some people jobless, chemicals used in industries in processing and the fumes expel from heavy machines has also introduce different disease , the same technology are harsh to human mistake and have contributed to the greater percent of Lazy people who are inconvenient with man power

No doubt technology has made life easy and interesting But it has also led to destruction of life and keeps bringing problems one way and another. To give an example, cellular cell phone though good has increased the rate of crime and how much money we spend trying to maintain them. Motorcycle and cars though good aside the cost of maintenance, it has led to several cases of accidents, ATM and banking operating system though good have made many people loss their job since their services was no longer needed.

Have the world actually become great or has it grown when pain and grief is what the system brings? Technology has only solved few problems whereby more problems is what it creates. This age can't be compare with the past decade, everything has being modernized and restructured but it has made some race superior over others.

The so called civilized world has created more problems and has affected our culture and lifestyle, it has made us forgotten where we came from and who we are and have made us abducted a strange custom. Are we really growing? Let's not define growth by the elusion of our technological age , let's define growth by moral and impact for humanity
