从长期看,人类改造自然的工具越先进,人类自身的能力可能会越弱化。比如,计算机的出现,虽然提高了计算速度,但计算机会让大脑产生依赖性,这可能会导致人类大脑的计算能力有下降问题。再比如,汽车的出现,虽然提高了运动速度,但长期开车,人类自身的步行能力必然会弱化,身体素质也必然会下降。再比如,人类的居住条件越改善,人类自身对抗自然的能力必然也会下降,就如温室里的花朵,经受风吹雨打的能力必然会下降一样。再比如,医疗制度的完善,虽然极大降低了人类的死亡率,提高了人类的存活率,但从平均值看,人类的整体素质必然是下降的,因为身体更弱的人得到了更多存活,这会导致人类健康的平均值必然下降。总之,人类改造自然的工具越先进,或人类自身的生产生活条件越优越,人类自身的能力也可能会越弱化。
如何解决这一问题,关键是人类的一切行为都要顺应自然,要道法自然。人类任何违背自然的行为,必然要受到自然的惩罚。如何顺应自然和道法自然,一是人类的任何技术发明必须要考虑与自然和谐共生的问题,不能对大自然产生过度破坏问题。二是人类的任何技术发明必须要考虑有利于人类自身素质的提高问题。比如,在生活条件的舒适度改善上,不应过度追求,应适可而止。
Song Guiwu The more advanced the tools of human beings to transform nature, the weaker the ability of human beings may be
In the long run, the more advanced the tools of human beings to transform nature, the weaker the ability of human beings may be.For example, although the emergence of computers has improved the speed of calculation, computers will make the brain dependent, which may lead to the decline of the computing ability of the human brain.For another example, although the emergence of cars has improved the speed of movement, long-term driving will inevitably weaken the walking ability of human beings and decrease their physical quality.For another example, the better the living conditions of human beings are, the less able human beings are to fight against nature, just like the flowers in the greenhouse, the ability to withstand wind and rain will inevitably decline.For another example, the improvement of the medical system, although it has greatly reduced the death rate of human beings and improved the survival rate of human beings, from the average point of view, the overall quality of human beings is bound to decline, because the weaker people have more chances to survive, which will lead to the decline of the average value of human health.In a word, the more advanced the tools of human beings to transform nature, or the better the production and living conditions of human beings, the weaker the ability of human beings may be.How to solve this problem? The key is that all human behaviors should conform to nature and follow the law of nature. Any human behavior that violates nature will be punished by nature. How to conform to nature and follow the law of nature? First, any technological inventions of human beings must consider the problem of harmonious coexistence with nature, and cannot cause excessive destruction to nature. Second, any technological inventions of human beings must consider the problem of improving human quality. For example, in the improvement of living conditions, we should not pursue excessive comfort, but should be satisfied with enough.
