Is science and technology are a blessing or a curse?

No, they are neither. Both can be used to accomplish good or evil. Their application cannot be blamed on the science or the technology. The responsibility for how they are used rests squarely on the people who use them.


Science and technology a 'blessing' or a 'curse'?

You seem to be stating a conclusion rather than answering a question but I will try to apply a little logic to this. Starting with the earth, we can say that almost everything is both a blessing and a curse. We have terrible natural disasters but we also have a pretty nice place to call home. Our bodies are an unbelievable complex of both science and technology and serve us well, but we still have horrific diseases and accidents. Even humans are both good and evil. On this plane of existance, everything that we know and use is both a blessing or a curse. As we use the brains that we have been blessed with, though, we are weeding through the curses and adding to the blessings.


Is science and technology a curse or a blessing?

They are both a blessing and a curse. Neither science nor technology in and of themselves are good or bad. It is what we as humans choose to do with science and technology that is good or bad. In some cases even something we do that is bad can lead to good. For example nuclear weapons are clearly bad. However that same radiation that can be used to kill masses. Can also be used to remove cancer. A computer can be used to learn a great many things about the world. Or it can be used to hurt children, take down power grids, and other nefarious acts.
