There's a reason wisdom and intelligence are two different words.
Over the last
century we've created some amazing technology. Who could've imagined the
radio,
TV,
cellular phone, or
Internet? Who could've guessed we'd be looking forward to
quantum computers? However, only recently have we gained the
wisdom to understand the consequences of our actions. With that
wisdom, we are able to use our
intelligence to create replacement technologies and repair technologies, that will stop/fix any damage we've done. That is one reason that it is
imperative we claim responsibility for our actions.
