THE QUESTIONS SCIENCE CAN'T ANSWER - Gene H Hogberg - May 1981

Gene H Hogberg

In the past 15 years, physical knowledge about the universe, our own planet earth and its unique life forms, has virtually exploded. Now scientists say that they will tackle such questions as "Why is there matter?" "Why is there life?" and "What is man?" But do the answers to these questions lie within the field of science? NEVER before have scientific topics been so popular with the general public. From spectacular television series about the marvels of our universe, to hot-selling, colorful scientific magazines for the layman, scientific discovery has become the "in thing." Young people talk about being "into space" or "into: DNA." Knowledge itself, to use economic terminology, is a growth industry. Yet, paradoxically, violent crime is al so a growth industry throughout the Western world. There is precious little knowledge of how to prevent ultimate nuclear cosmocide, how to have rewarding marriages and happy family life, and how to live in harmony with ourselves and our physical environment.
