As the Ages change, scientific "Truths" also change. (don't call it development). Nature still is mysterious.

Question

Politics also play its part, as in Galileo's life. Of course many inventions have come. Man uses it for his own material ends. Can Man, the higher animal, boast "WE ARE IN 21ST CENTURY"
and attained higher knowledge of the universe?

Answer 1

As long as we do not understnd any thig it is a mystery.so mystery is the solution to any problem that is beyond our comprehension. but human brain that is also partof this great nature has ben able to resolve somany mysteries and has been able to gues thihngs that migh thave happemed long before the human species themselves have appeared on th scene of the earth. This the huamn brain has been able to achive by learning the basic and fundamentakl lws that ae in operation in the universe Man has been able to ques what nature has taken some zillions of yeas to do and achieve . What all we are doing is a development only . As we climb every rung of the ladder of knowledge , it is a development only. Yes . man can boast of his achievements . man will be able to reach the farthermost galaxy also in due course . One must understnd that it took several million years for the powerful nature to rach this stage of development and man as a product of nature has come intoi the scnene only within some few miliion years and has developed his scientific knowledg only recently say, withing a 500years BCE only. So within q short span of 3000 years man has been able to quess wha tthe universe was some zillions of =years agao . Zin fact they have been able to replicate in thelaboratory the naturkl conditions tha were responsible for the creation of the building blocks of life the DNA and RNA.
if nature is very grea , greater ar ethe humans that is the superior brains of nature. man is not anythng diferent from nature.
Ther eis a long way to go still. the folly of heaven abnd hell has come to be arealized by humans to some extent now .Themateruial world is the very basis for the spiritual thought . Sprituality is niothing without materialsm.Man's very being and exisrtenxce is is by material objects .If that material being is not ther , then there is no need for this world . no preaching and not idealogy. matter alson is indestructible and no spirit can exist without material body.This man will have tolearn yet .despite the strong foolish ideaologies of the past based on religion.
evenanimals live peacefully without religion. It is only the humans who suffr because of the religons .It will take billions of years for the hi=umans to get rid of the virusses installed in the hard disc of its brain at a time it did not have any idea of the naturl forces aroun diot and even thoguth that the sun was going round the earth and the god were pissing through the seives toi cause rains on the earth.fortuantely thay have atleast now atter some ceturies have come to realize that the /gods are not pissing like urchins , through the seives and making fun on the huamans.
the humans are really making srtrides in knowledge . It won't be a surprise if the humans colonize some other planets before the sun exhaustes its fuel and turns intio a white giant and destroys all theplanets around it . the humans might escaspe the fate of hte sun even oneday.

Answer 2

Of course it is mysterious, that is why it is so fascinating. You are also correct, of course, that politics (with a small p) and society shape our view IF we are not absolutely rigourous in questioning everything we see.

If we could just open a book and find the unquestionable universal truth, then there would be nothing.

Answer 3

Nature is mysterious and there is still a plethora of unsolved and undiscovered mysteries and secrets around us. This is what makes everything exciting - the uncertainity of everything around us.

Answer 4

Only non-scientists ever think of 'scientific "Truths" ' as some immutable list of eternal facts. Of course nature holds lots of unanswered questions and is mysterious, however those very inventions you admit to are thanks to the bits of nature we can successfully predict thanks to the process of science.

Answer 5

No! not probably. as galileo was captured inthe darkness of politics, todays scientists are also captured in the doom of selfishness and political ambitions. we cannot expect any good from our scientists anymore.

Answer 6

we are running towards the eternal and ultimate truth which is yet to come after say millions of generations which also will connote our meeting with the creator almighty. yes in a sense we are developing-- towards divinity

Answer 7

of course it is.

Answer 8

Shure is!
