The war is what propelled humans through the applying science. And every invention ever made could be used in war. That's the nature of mankind

I can not believe the general simplicity and stupidity of the "Top Comment" who the fuck votes that up?

I wish i could agree, but war, otherwords direct concurence confrontation, is a big part of natural selection. As other human phenomena, most of it. Love, family, war. Everything for survivability of the species.

Food collection is important too, it is a basis, but we arent evolved from the predators, are we?

First war was the huge boost to our brains and skills, even if it was simple cave capturing.

The only thing that changed today, is...ummm..wait. Nothing?

@arzGiyan nope.avi

War did speed it along, but curiosity alone is a much bigger factor. Hunting is the most likely reason we made weapons in the first place.

It would all be great if these things were applied properly but they never are - we just cannot help it - greed, jealousy, lust, revenge, power.

Just take a look in the mirror.....

@TheLogicisking "Bio weapons are a loose cannon. " Not necessarily. Every advance towards therapeutic approaches based on the DNA of an ethnic group can be used to develop a weapon instead. Think of it as a revolution in the way of committing ethnic cleansing...

[TheLogicisking]

@AmunRa1 That is exactly the point I was saying. Bio weapons are a loose cannon. you can place them in one spot, but odds are that it will spread and cause more harm than what you intended. DNA vaccines are useless against pathogens that do not have any protein antigens, but virtualy all viruses have them and bacteria and parasites are sub-optimal bio weapons for the most part. I am anti-war, but I still know almost everything about it.

@TheLogicisking

It would kill a lot of people before the vaccine would be made. However, biological warfare with the use of viruses is today seen as almost barbaric, both by military researchers and the public. Another issue is the fact that it's so uncontrollable. The virus could spread to us or our allies through travel.
