Which Is The Greatest Human Invention? by kosalabaro: 9:03am On Oct 24, 2013 |
Since the time God created the world and man, and gave man the great commission ‘’Go ye into the world and dominate’’, man has tried to conquer his environment over the ages with various types of invention. Can you ever imagine life without the invention of television, radio, telephone, biros, pens, paper, shoes, soaps, bicycles, drugs, Plaster of Paris (POP), clothes, cooking stoves, electric cookers, iron, washing machines, computers, internet, ipads, aeroplanes, helicopter, air conditioners, ATMs, GSMs, cars, trains, ships etc. The list is in fact endless……………….. We should not also forget the invention of education, the need to be educated and specialise in different fields of endeavour. So, I just got myself thinking, which can we truly say is the greatest of all these human inventions? Which has impacted human life the most? Besides the natural creation of air and water, is there any one human creation that we cannot survive without, just like air & water? For me, I think it’s electricity because without the invention of electricity, nearly 90% (if not 100%) of all the other inventions would not have been possible. So, what do you think? Or do you agree with me that Alessandro Volta's electricity is the greatest? Which of all these great inventions by man is the greatest in your opinion and why? |

Nonso23: It's simple. The greatest invention by man is language (oral communication) . A close second are the signs and symbols used to put down languages in writing. Without these i dare to say mankind would still be in the dark ages... I think language is a natural phenomenon from God Himself. We are talking our human creations / human inventions here. Things that human beings used their minds and hands to create. I don't think any human being has been credited with creating any language to date. |

Electricity though important but uncomparable to air and water.Without Electricity,life is very possible and endurable but,the quality of living may seriously be affected and the standard of living may seriously be at the minimum.In my opinion,the most simple invetion by man is medicine;that is understanding our body system and working.If this was not done,the life itself must have come to an end with diseases and medical complication and the rest.Thank God for the discovery in medicines |
