CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Lead plumbing, leaded gasoline and asbestos weren't 'mistakes' of science!
In fact science created the awareness of their dangers to humans and the environment?!

Well...
The people who created tetra ethyl lead sure seemed to understand it caused lead poisoning, but would rather get rich.

South American civilizations prior to the arrival of Europeans had thriving, rich cultures that didn't use the wheel for anything other than kids toys. It's a common go to, but I don't think it's as important an invention as people think

I will think about that while I'm driving 60 miles to where I work and whenever I buy anything that got to the store on a truck or was delivered to my house

You should consider the environment and use public transport. But if you think the worlds best invention is the one that makes you spend 3 hours a day in a metal can traveling from home to work well...
that's nice for you, I guess.

How horrible. I can bus or tram+train to my work, though I tend to cycle because of the aforementioned saving the planet thing, and because I am 6 miles from work, not 60.

Chemical Engineers!
Less than half of the items listed for good or evil can be properly described as the product of science (mine is not), but TEL can.
Figuring out how to manufacture in bulk, that's on ChE's.
