Could politics with mere science, devoid of real ethics/morals/spirituality turn the Globe into an inferno?

“the development of atomic power has imbued the struggle with a ghostly character; for both parties know and admit that, should the quarrel deteriorate into actual war, mankind is doomed. Despite this knowledge, statesmen in responsible positions on both sides continue to employ the well-known technique of seeking to intimidate and demoralize the opponent by marshaling superior military strength. They do so even though such a policy entails the risk of war and doom. Not one statesman in a position of responsibility has dared to pursue the only course that holds out any promise of peace, the course of supranational security, since for a statesman to follow such a course would be tantamount to political suicide”

Uhh, you should google the cold war and no it is not likely to happen as the governments who have nuclear weapons have sworn not to use them because of their destructive power

Peace be on you.
IMO situation has more dimensions [more that pitiful politicians and pitiful science].
1=Politicians, bureaucracy and leaders without caring common human morals [not from religion].
2=Extremist religious clergies who have shaken hands with above class and / or other like ones.
3=Weapon sellers, who has to sell arms at any cost and their lobbyists.
4=Lack of Justice.
5=Keeping eyes at others' natural resources.

Not the bang ! Is not so bad , not enough bang to blaze all of the land , is what follows multiple x enough atomic radiation to rot humanity into extinction.
Is not the blast , is what follows . Nuclear power station more dangerous than bomb .
The inferno is of no pain , is the survivors will decay for billion years

I agree that the world has been dangerously burdened with maniacal politicians. They are everywhere. And I agree that they have applied the work of scientists to dangerous ends.

But most real scientists do have morals and ethics and values.

Nothing can be completely devoid of God, (Father is synonymous with Creator, as Jesus states). His will isn't an optional thing, it's a certainty.

So, we have seen that the greatest abomination of desolation is dishonor between brothers, between neighbors, and between all flesh. And we have seen that the Earth is cursed on our account.

The spirit of Cain created war, and eventually nuclear weaponry.
 
There is only one thing that can turn the world into a real inferno - ISLAM!

:facepalm:

On the topic of the cold war, Google Vasili Arkhipov, he's the reason it hasn't already happened. We really were very close indeed.

There is a small chance every year that it will happen. Given a long enough timespan it is almost guaranteed to happen. The question is, how long that timespan is going to be or if we find a different way to kill ourselves before then.

What does "politics with mere science" mean?
What is the "real" ethics/morals/spirituality refer to in your question?
What kind of inferno do you mean?

Do you mean could immoral unethical unspirituality politics (which equip with the science technology capable to turn the Globe into an inferno) turn the Globe into an inferno?

One should consider that religion and spirituality are simply not well defined (or well gauged) at all.

At their best they do lead to ethics. Often enough they inhibit them instead.

Science is science. It is focused on quality of knowledge, and is not particularly attuned to nor opposed to moral and ethics.

It is a real danger. I agree with you,

Yes. I think so.

Politics is about control.
Science is about knowledge
Moral/ethics is about to do what's best
Spirituality together with science can help figure out moral/ethics. I don't think spirituality alone can do it. You also need knowledge about things.

The prophets are harbinger of good/happy news for the people if they accept the truth, but they are also sent as warning to the people before hand of the destruction if they don't mend their ways.
Noah, Jesus etc and Mirza Ghualm Ahmad 1835-1908 served happy news as well as warnings.

The OP is probably aiming for the exact opposite.
I believe there is no virtue in Islam or at least - it s villainy or vileness far outweighs its virtues.

A Buddhist, or a Christian or a Hindu are free enough to change their religion; but not a muslim. If a muslim changes his religion - he is punished with torturing, life imprisonment or death. Every Islamic countries keep a much barbaric laws and punishments. They are against scientific developments.

When the rate of growth of non-Muslim ethnic populations in almost all countries are stabilizing or even decreasing, Muslim population is exploding. So eventually, Muslim population will overcome these ethnic populations one day after which they will implement sharia rule in that country. (We can see the various stages of these happening in many countries). When we give equal respects to all religion /atheists, Islamic thoughts are narrow minded and they will see you as infidels or kaafirs.

Islam is a brainwashing religion that cripples ones morale and lessens ones rational thinking capacity- the followers can hardly escape from this.

If a third world war comes, there may be a few blazing infernos and the war may put the world to darkages for 20 or 30 years, after which the economy and life will be normal. However, if a country or the world turns islamic, then the darkages will span for 1000's of years - far worse than blazing infernos.
