Robots Bring Peace, Not Fear

Robots Role in Bringing a World of Peace

People fear that having robots will take away our jobs.

Robots will play a significant role in our freedom and bring us greater peace - but not in the way you expect. Already robots play a significant role in our lives. Instead of humans performing dangerous industrial work in constructing and other livelihoods, robots are used. For instance, something as common as a forklift carries heavy equipment to a high rise, and we have robots flying to distant planets such as Mars without risking lives to collect data.

On a more practical note, in our everyday lives we are freer to do many things because of common appliances, that can be considered robots, taking away the daily chores humans once did. Your dishwasher, for example, takes away the need for large volume of dishes to be hand washed.

But in the near future, most of the minimal jobs that take human effort will be replaced entirely by robots.  Physical jobs in the future will be managed by one person or two in the future who runs the plant with just the push of a button.  Then there will be more time for God's children to enjoy the fruits of the creation and each other as brothers and sisters.  This is God's plan, how can we deny that we are living in an archaic system of hard labor, stressful type of world?

Must we forget that in the beginning when God gave Adam and Eve a choice of blessing and curses, one of the curses was that people would have to work the ground for their survival.  At that time, Adam and Eve didn't have to till the land for food, the earth yielded its fruit willingly.  But after the fall of humans, the ground was cursed. 

People may worry that robots will put millions out of work, but the world will evolve to create a whole new culture of work as it always has.

Just fifty years ago, the movie industry only dreamed of computer special effects and when the technology cornered the market, animators worried it would take away their jobs. What happened when computers could create fake objects and humans, there was more need for human input and imagination, so that fear has quickly been replaced with better quality of movies.

Farmers would attest that the use of farm equipment, compared to how our ancestors used to farm, has been one of the reasons we enjoy a better time than in the 1800s. In other words, humanity experiences less suffering because of the use of robots and will only improve our lives.

You might think of your car as a robot, but they are sort of becoming that way. They talk to you, tell you when your gas is getting low and tell you how to get to your next destination.

So, the idea that humans should turn into robots to create the perfect human being seems to be a hellish reality with our current situations in society. The only way to peace is with humanity heading toward God's ideals of a peaceful world. 

Work relief robots, perfect humans, a World of Peace will happen as humanity accepts God's principles as a way of life. Thank God He gave us 5% responsibility from the beginning to enjoy freedom to be ourselves and to explore the world in which He endowed us ownership. As we come closer to returning to His ideal of Creation, we will see these blessing bear fruit.



Today's topic is based on Dr. Rev. Sun Myung Moon's autobiography, "As a Peace Loving Global Citizen." Dr. Rev. Sun Myung Moon studied the bible deeply for nine years before writing the Divine Principle that is mainly a decoder of how God worked behind the scenes for the victory to bring His children back to the original ideal.
