Science will destroy humans, says team of scientists -
(NaturalNews) “One of the primary goals of science is to advance knowledge and understanding to improve the human condition, but all too often this noble field of study has devolved into a profit-seeking quest for power, at the expense of mankind.
Indeed, the science of technology is perhaps the worst culprit, a team of mathematicians, philosophers and scientists at Oxford University’s Future of Humanity Institute is warning.
The team, in a forthcoming paper titled, Existential Risk Prevention as Global Priority, says humankind’s over-reliance on technology could lead to its demise, and that human beings are facing a risk to our own existence. “
For lovers, the only teaching is the beauty of the Beloved; their only book and lecture is the Face.

My friend, seize the chance to live, how many a corpse that came to them was revived; Never shall anyone be disappointed, never, who comes with a true intention. Clear your heart for the theophany. Open your eye for true joy; other than the Divine, my friend, abandon, and be annihilated in the exalted entity.
