Description

Ma'amar HaDor, P13. Taking a digression into the Shmoneh Kevatzim of Rav Kook about morality and technology. Technology in the hands of the morally undeveloped is very dangerous. A long life can be used well by someone who knows how to grow. With the increased comforts in life comes an increase in unhappiness. We need the great men who illuminate Hashem's light in the world to help us evolve spiritually, so that we can be able to utilize the world properly. A piece in Oros HaKodesh about the demand for the positive moral development of the world and the expansion of technological knowledge. Once it was the dictator who was holding back human freedom, but in the modern world, it is 'religion' that is blamed for holding back human freedom.
