About the Science Fiction novels and the way how people handle things in those books





About the Science Fiction novels and the way how people handle things in those books

When we are thinking about the SciFi books we are facing the attitude, that scientists always work imprudently. And military men are going to fix the errors, what scientists make. This is the normal attitude around the media when they are talking about weapon research and military contractors.

The men, who made nuclear bomb were criminals, and military personnel, who operate those bombs are innocent poor people, who are forced to use those weapons. But then we might take another point of view about those things, and ask "why we always must benefit everything, what somebody offers?".

When we are thinking about the scientists, who are working in the secret research plants in somewhere at other planets, we must say, that the persons who are making that kind of bases and make the things like contacting to another civilization possible are persons, who are making this kind of things possible. If we are thinking about the philosophical problem about crime, where somebody leaves the weapon in the hands of the people, who would use it against somebody else, we must realize that the person, who gives the opportunity and tool for crime is the same way guilty as the person, who uses that weapon.

Especially if the person who gives the weapon, and knows that the inmate uses it against other people are guilty of giving that weapon. But the person who uses and takes that weapon is making own decision about the use of lethal force, and that means that it would release the actor from responsibility. The user of the weapon is guilty about things, what the weapon makes when it is in the hand of the user.

Another way to think about scientists is that they are some kind of children, who don't understand, what they are doing. But when we are thinking otherwise, scientists are creating weapons, and weapons are toys in the hands of the military. And the point is that adults are making toys for children.

An adult person stands the criticism, what is targeting the adult person's personality. When scientists make their work, they must think, what they are going to do, and use self-criticism about their work.  So would we buy an assault rifle to the child? The thing is that we must not make or buy everything that we see and create everything that comes in our mind.

When we are observing this kind of things more careful, we might compare that kind of things in the point of view of a child who is left alone in the house with the tinderbox. In that case, the circumstances, what are making some actions possible are the house. So if we would leave the child without attention to that house and tinderbox in hand, there are very big problems ahead.

 If we don't give instructions, what that child must do, the case is that sooner or later the house would burn. The thing is that the person, who lives a child in the house should know, that something would happen, especially if that adult person would say, that "use that tinderbox as the light". So if the instructions are wrong,  the results would be extremely dangerous. And if we would leave somebody without attention on some other planet, could the results be something else, then we want.
