Name one item that would dramatically affect the world, if it no longer exists?

Question

Ex. Camera - cuz we use it to capture memories, and pictures are everywhere, think about what life would be like without it

Wow, wut a bunch of sad answers

Answer 1

I believe that the one item that would dramatically affect the world, if it no longer existed, would have to be the "Automobile"

Think about it, how would most of us get around the world and from point A to point B without it, we wouldn't be able to go to work, go out with friends, or take a vacation cross-country to possibly see other members of a family without it our daily lives of our so-called world that we all live in as we know it.

Answer 2

Oxygen: we'd all be dead.

Light: we'd all be lost and eventually die (perhaps)

Electricity: a heck of a lot of jobs would be lost; plus a lot of people would be mad as hell.

The presence of God and Christianity, or even religion in general: we'd all be lost and without guidance, and would feel that there is less to life. For some there would be no life at all.

Humans: the world just might be better off.

Answer 3

You think those answers were any worse than 'cameras'? Life would be FAR less different without cameras than without some of things mentioned, like computers, light bulbs, money, sex, weapons, etc.

P.S. We DON'T use cameras to 'capture memories', we use our BRAINS to 'capture memories'. We use cameras to capture images.

Answer 4

air or water or fire or earth or you or anybody else
a fly a bee a leaf a grain of sand

but if your question reads if it (the world) no longer exists
then nothing The one item which would dramitically affect the world if it no longer exists is nothing

Answer 8

Not that it will EVER cease to exist; people are just ignoring its existence. It is......God. Knowing God in order to make sense of things happening around us. And by so doing, actually give meaning to life. Everything other thing would be a cherry on top.

I also agree with those who say oxygen actually!!

Answer 9

Coffee, just imagine the morning commute without Coffee, for me Coffee is a life sustaining substance.

Answer 10
