Is science a cause of suffering in the modern world?

The world of science deserves our respect due to their skill that have added so greatly to our knowledge. Every informed person is aware of the amazing accomplishments of scientists in many fields Scientific study has dramatically increased our knowledge of the univers and of the earth and of living things. Studies of the human body have improved ways of treating illnesses and injuries. Rapid advances in electronics have ushered in the computer age, which is altering our lives. The causes of suffering is due to mankind's lack of wisdom in their choices. Wisdom can only come from someone more intelligent than the human race. And bringing our lives into agreement with God's purpose is vital to our future, since with Him is "the source of life", as confirmed in the Bible in the Book of Psalm 36:9 So we should not become ensnared by science and philosophies that are contrary to reality. Romans 1: 25 speaks of " those who exchanged the truth of God for the lie and venerated and rendered sacred service to the creation rather than the One who created all things. Revelation 4: 11 reminds us that Jehovah God is " worthy to receive the glory and the honour and the power, because He created all things, God's knowledge and wisdom is the only solution for mankind. The Book of 2 Timothy 3: 16,17 reminds us that God's word the Bible, is the way that God has chosen to communicate with mankind, so that we can be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work. So to answer your question, which is " Is science a cause of suffering in the modern world? The answer is given from the Book of 1 John 5: 19 and Revelation 12: 9 which explains why our world is in such a mess, in these words. " The world is lying in the power of the wicked one, and Revelation 12: 9 describes the wicked one as the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth. We can all avoid being misled with God's knowledge and wisdom. There are only two ways of thinking. Matthew 7: 13 reads: " Go through the narrow gate, because broad is the gate and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are going in through it". The brought gate has brought people to become lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, unthankful not open to any agreement and so forth... confirmed in the Book of 2 Timothy 3: 1-5 and that is where suffering came into our world. The Book of Genesis chapter 3 and Romans 5: 12 in mankind's history. Isaiah 48: 17,18 reminds us that God has our best interest and He wants us to be successful now and in the future. Psalm 37: 29 reads: The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it, which has always been God's purpose and has not changed
