Mark Kennedy is right at some point when he said that “All of the biggest technological inventions created by man – the airplane, the automobile, the computer – says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness”. Although man’s intelligence brought about the numerous technological advantages mankind is experiencing today, the main driver behind these inventions is man’s laziness. If we look back and see why most of the technological inventions exist today, we can come to realize that most of these inventions are geared towards making work easier for man.

Culture, belief systems, feelings and intellectual “laziness” often push me away from objectivity. For instance, I know that my faith prohibits abortion, and I am therefore unwilling to seriously consider contrary arguments on ...
