Some people go gaga about modern facilities like recording, broadcasting, simulation, virtual recreation of situations etc.. praising in the loudest voices about the success of modern technology and gadgetry..
Technology and gadgetry are good and useful upto certain levels..
Beyond that they can kill us emotionally and physically too.
Do we really want that?
Basically certain things are just expected to be done by the individuals themselves..
The procedures and rituals were not scheduled by our forefathers because they did not know the shortcuts..
For example, population can be increased by artificial insemination.. and that way, even the quality of the children born can be subjected under strict quality control through genetic improvisations.. without considering the Individual male or female as a unit of further progress in race...
Of course that gene revolution like green revolution might create an elite set of humans for the future..
But the institutions of marriage, love, kinship and so many fine and tender things which make life worth living would simply vanish.
Do we want such a situation?

Prayers for a nice day
