Week #3- Daily #4- "War is a form of technology". Agree or Disagree.

          I agree that war is a form of technology because war uses advanced and high-tech weapons. Technology is knowledge, and we gain knowledge throughout war. Over the years, we have come up with new ways to kill people. People these days seem very violent. In the 1800s, there were not atomic bombs being dropped in Japan. The form of technology that wars use has been advancing. The more technologically advanced a country was, the more deadly their weapons were. I bet pretty soon that someone is going to create something that will blow up their whole country. We have benefited from war because of the technology advancements. When a soldier got hurt, we would find out how to cure him or her with new types of medicines. We have always been learning new things and the students in high school now are preparing for jobs that do not even exist yet! The knowledge we need to know will probably be used to stop or start wars. People in the ancient world used weapons like spears and bows and arrows. They used shields to guard themselves. Now, we use tanks, machine guns, and bombs. There are even popular video games that children and teenagers play to entertain themselves! Our world is turning into a violent place. No one in the past would have ever even thought about the things that we find old-fashioned nowadays. War will always be advancing and improving in some way, shape, or form. Everything is changing every day, whether we realize it or not.
